Bob Dylan beat back an appeal of a lawsuit filed by the widow of a former collaborator who claims she’s entitled to a cut of his blockbuster publishing sale.

However, Dylan’s and Universal Music Group’s legal team argued that Levy was simply an “employee for hire” for Dylan — a claim proven in the 1974 contract between Levy and Dylan that stated Levy was an “employee” approximately 84 times — and that Levy, who died in 2004, did not have co-ownership of the songs he and Dylan worked on together.

Judge Barry Ostrager ultimately agreed with Dylan’s lawyers, dismissing the Levy lawsuit in an 18-page decision. “For the reasons explained here, the Court determines that the plain meaning of the 1975 Agreement is that the Dylan Defendants owned all copyrights to the Compositions,” Ostrager wrote “We’re pleased with today’s decision,” Dylan’s attorney Orin Snyder said in a statement Friday. “As we said when the case was filed, this lawsuit was a sad attempt to profit off the recent catalog sale. We’re glad it’s now over.”
