3LW clarified that they had nothing to do with the case
."There is nothing but love and respect for Taylor and her team," they wrote."3LW had nothing to do with this case. Please direct all hate elsewhere."
Back in 2018, the case was dismissed by Judge Michael Fitzgerald. But it was Hall and Butler who appealed the ruling, and a court reversed it in 2019. Swift and her team tried to get Fitzgerald to dismiss the case again, but in his latest ruling the judge wrote that while they had"persuasive arguments" about how her song is different from"Playas Gon' Play," there is a"possibility that there is still a genuine dispute as to the potential substantial similarity between the lyrics and their sequential structure."The case will be going to jury trial, but the date has not been set just yet.
This isn't the first time"Shake It Off" has been the target of plagiarism accusations. In 2015, a musician named Jesse Graham sued her for $42 million. He claimed that if he had not written his 2013 song entitled"Haters Gonna Hate," Swift would not have been able to write her bop. The case was dismissed by a judge, who also used 3LW's"Playas Gon' Play" as an example of the line being used earlier on.
