Jackson was arrested in April 2018 on suspicion he extorted Hart.
The charges were ultimately dropped.
Jackson claims Hart instigated the theory to prosecutors that Jackson was behind the extortion.
Jackson have been dropped, and he is not guilty and had nothing to do with it.
In that event, that claim could return to his court after the arbitration process concludes, he said.
A representative for Jackson said Friday he plans to appeal the judges ruling.
Harts lawyer, Donte Mills, responded to the ruling in an email toRolling Stone.
We will hold people to their agreements, he said.
