Overview

• Jay-Z has filed a legal motion seeking sanctions against attorney Tony Buzbee, who represents a woman accusing him and Sean 'Diddy' Combs of raping her in 2000.
• The lawsuit alleges that the two music moguls assaulted the plaintiff, then 13 years old, at an afterparty following the MTV Video Music Awards.
• Jay-Z’s legal team argues Buzbee violated ethical standards by filing the case without meeting the plaintiff and failing to properly vet her claims.
• Key inconsistencies in the plaintiff’s account include her father denying a critical part of her story and her misidentification of a celebrity allegedly present at the event.
• Buzbee defends his actions, claiming the case was adequately vetted and dismissing Jay-Z’s motion as desperate and meritless.
