Jay-Z makes ‘surprise’ move in Sean Combs rape lawsuit Rapper and music mogul last month asked a judge to dismiss the lawsuit against him and Combs.
Combs’ attorneys denied both women’s claims, issuing a statement that said: “As we’ve said before, Mr. Combs cannot respond to every new publicity stunt, even in response to claims that are facially ridiculous or demonstrably false.
Jay-Z’s lawyers have reportedly asked to withdraw his request to sanction the lawyer behind a lawsuit that accuses him and fellow music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs of raping a 13-year-old girl.
Referring to Jay-Z by his legal last name, the judge added: “Carter’s lawyer’s relentless filing of combative motions containing inflammatory language and ad hominem attacks is inappropriate, a waste of judicial resources, and a tactic unlikely to benefit his client.
“We have discussed this matter with counsel for Plaintiff who consents to this submission and agrees the withdrawal is without prejudice,” a brief letter to Judge Analisa Torres from Alex Spiro, Jay-Z’s longtime lawyer, said.
