Manhattan Judge Charles Ramos has given software developer Gate Five the go-ahead to proceed with their lawsuit against Beyonce, where they claim she backed out on a $20 million agreement to be featured in Starpower: Beyonce.

Beyonce’s lawyers claim that she had the right to walk away from the project, as it hadn’t finalized financial backing for the project, which was obtained three days later. After the project tanked, Gate Five had to fire 70 employees.

Beyonce is now facing a court appearance in the near future, as Judge Ramos ruled that she should have given the company notice of her decision before she walked away from the project.
