On Wednesday, April 6, 2016, a New York judge threw out her hate-crime and human-rights claims against her former producer Dr. Luke. Manhattan state Supreme Court Justice Shirley Werner Kornreich said Kesha's claims that Dr. Luke raped and abused her can't go forward because the alleged incidents happened outside New York and beyond the legal time limit. (AP Photo/Mary Altaffer, File) (AP)
