A Los Angeles judge ruled Kim Kardashian should not be held liable against Blac Chyna’s defamation claim.

Documents obtained by Page Six show the court ruled that “no statement” made by the Skims founder, 41, was “alleged to be defamatory” against the “Rob & Chyna” alum, 33.

Chyna’s team previously argued they only needed to prove that each defendant in the case — including Kim, Khloé Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Kris Jenner — took a “responsible part” in defaming Chyna, whose real name is Angela White.

Jurors were told to consider evidence, including emails and messages made by Khloé, Kylie and Kris to network executives.

The court agreed on Friday that there is “no evidence” to support that Kim had a “responsible part” in defaming Chyna, per the documents, so the Skims founder was dropped from the defamation claim.

The ruling was based on the lawyers’ arguments, the court record and papers from the counsel.

Although Kim was absolved of the defamation charge, she is potentially still on the hook for alleged intentional interference with a contract.

Chyna has accused the Kardashian-Jenner family of using their influence to cancel a potential second season of her and ex-fiancé Rob Kardashian’s E! reality show.

However, Jeff Jenkins, former co-president of Bunim-Murray and executive producer of the series, testified last week that networks including BET, VH1, Lifetime and MTV were also uninterested in picking up “Rob & Chyna.”

Chyna is seeking more than $100 million for economic damages, including loss of earnings from social media posts, club and TV appearances and general damages for emotional distress.

The Kardashian-Jenner family’s attorney, Michael Rhodes, tried to get the case dismissed altogether last Friday, arguing that Chyna’s claims were “absurd.”

He also said the total damages amount is based on “unsupported and wildly speculative claims” since she has not provided the appropriate accounting records.

The jury has been deliberating since 9:30 a.m. local time and could make a decision in the case by Friday’s end.
