Phoebe Bridgers scored a major legal victory Wednesday when a Los Angeles judge struck down a 3.8 million defamation lawsuit filed against her by a recording studio owner.
A Los Angeles County Superior Court judge granted Bridgers’ dismissal request, called an anti-slapp motion, after the the Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter appeared at an August hearing to argue she was protected by the First Amendment when she accused Sound Space studio owner Chris Nelson of abusive conduct in an October 2020 Instagram post.
“We feel vindicated that the court recognized this lawsuit as frivolous and without merit.
