I've read the fifty pages twice and looked at specific parts of it a number of other times.
The judge clearly says "Marvel's motion stands or falls on Lee's testimony."
Everything else in the ruling is predicated her accepting that Kirby created nothing on spec.
The whole key to the ruling is Lee's contention that he created all the characters in question alone and presented them to Kirby.
Lee has been making the exact same claims since Perfect Film purchased Marvel, prior to that he was more likely to credit Kirby as a co-creator even mentioning that Kirby had brought him the idea for Ego the Living Planet.
Lee's contention that he conceived the plots and characters before ever speaking to Kirby is the linchpin of Marvel's case.
