Kesha and her lawyer lashed out at the judge, who turned a blind eye to her plea to get out from under her Sony contract, saying that the law could not be clearer and slavery is illegal.
The 'Tick Tock' singer's lawyer, Mark Geragos, filed legal documents trying to overturn the decision, forcing her to stay with the label at least for now, reports TMZ.com.
According to Geragos, "Although [the court] recognized that 'slavery was done away with a long time ago' and that 'you can't force someone to work ... in a situation in which they don't want to work,' the Court's ruling requiring Kesha to work for [Dr. Luke's] companies ... does just that."
The court is still giving Kesha the chance to break free but only after a trial, which could take a long time.
