Beyonce just scored a huge legal victory — the judge in that “Lemonade” lawsuit sided with her and tossed the case … TMZ has learned.
The judge said he considered filmmaker Matthew Fulks’ argument that “Lemonade” ripped off his work, and decided to toss the case … according to docs obtained by TMZ. It’s unclear why the judge rejected Fulks’ suit … he says he’ll dish details later.
TMZ broke the story … Bey was sued by Fulks back in June alleging she jacked several parts of his 2014 movie, “Palinoia” — using similar images from his short film for the “Lemonade” visual album.
Beyonce argued her work depicted a “proud black woman” … a stark contrast to Fulks’ film about a depressed white guy.
Make that … TWO depressed white guys now.
