Diddy just scored a legal victory as one of the many lawsuits against him has been thrown out by a judge after the accuser failed to identify herself.
In October, Jane Doe filed suit in the Southern District of New York alleging the Bad Boy mogul assaulted her at a party in 1995. But on Monday (March 31), U.S. District judge Lewis J. Liman tossed the case out after she did not file a complaint under her real identity.
“On March 6, 2025, the Court denied Plaintiff’s motion to proceed anonymously and ordered her to file a complaint in her own name by March 20, 2025, or the case would be dismissed,” he wrote in a ruling obtained by PEOPLE. “As of [March 31], Plaintiff has not filed a complaint in her own name, nor has she sought an extension of time to do so. Accordingly, the case is dismissed.”
The woman was represented by Tony Buzbee – who is currently being sued by JAY-Z for defamation after he represented the anonymous plaintiff who accused Hov and Diddy of raping her when she was 13 years old. That lawsuit was voluntarily withdrawn last month.
In a statement, Diddy’s legal team celebrated the victory.
“For months, we have seen case after case filed by individuals hiding behind anonymity, pushed forward by attorneys more focused on media headlines than legal merit,” they said. “The other claims, like the one dismissed today, also will not hold up in a court of law.”
They continued: “This is now the second case brought by these attorneys against Mr. Combs that has been dismissed in its entirety. It will not be the last.”
