Jay-Z’s Ex-Accuser Is Out, But Her Reversal Gets A Court Date
Originally published by AllHipHop Read the original
Jay-Z‘s former accuser is no longer a defendant in his case against Tony Buzbee, but a New York judge will hear the fight over her reversal on claims that the rap mogul sexually assaulted her with Diddy.
U.S. District Judge Dale Ho set a December 11 hearing for bids to dismiss Jay-Z’s lawsuit against Tony Buzbee, cut parts of his complaint and remove Jane Doe’s sworn statement.
The New York defamation fight grew from the sexual assault allegation Doe made against Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs. Both men denied it.
She withdrew that case with prejudice on February 14, 2025.
As AllHipHop previously reported, Jay-Z accused the lawyers of pursuing claims they knew were false. Buzbee disputed his account and accused Jay-Z’s side of pressuring Doe.
Doe later said her accusation against Jay-Z was false and that she had never met or spoken to him. Her September 24 declaration accompanied Jay-Z’s notice dropping her from his own case.
Buzbee’s lawyer challenged that reversal, arguing that Jay-Z obtained it in exchange for dismissing Doe.
The hearing is set for 10 A.M. in Courtroom 905 at the Thurgood Marshall Courthouse, 40 Foley Square in Manhattan.
