\nAriana Grande has been granted expedited discovery in the pop star\u2019s lawsuit over hackers stealing her unreleased music and photos, according to court documents filed in Los Angeles on Wednesday. <\/p>\n

\n\tGrande first filed her lawsuit against unnamed John Does in July, alleging that hackers had targeted devices of people in her inner circle to steal unreleased music, photos and other materials, subsequently selling the content online on the \u201cdark web for significant sums of money.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGrande\u2019s team filed a request for expedited third-party deposition subpoenas shorter than the usual required waiting period, noting that her team has \u201cidentified certain Internet platforms and third-party entities whose services were used to perpetrate the illegal dissemination and transactions, and which are believed to have information and data that will allow Plaintiff to identify and unmask these unknown Defendants.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe court granted that request, noting that \u201cit makes little sense to wait\u201d given that Grande doesn\u2019t have any specific defendants to serve.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAnd on the merits of the motion, good cause is shown,\u201d judge Mark H. Epstein ruled on Wednesday. \u201cThe 20 day waiting period will never run because plaintiff cannot \u2014 even with reasonable diligence \u2014 discovery the defendant\u2019s identity without this discovery, and therefore will never be able to serve defendants.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGrande said she\u2019s been the victim of this hacking campaign for years, noting that in 2023, as many as 45 of her unreleased songs leaked online. Among the songs that have leaked are \u201cFantasize,\u201d \u201cThat Bitch Is Mine\u201d and \u201cWhite Tee.\u201d<\/p>\n
