Overview
- A New York judge dismissed a 1995 sexual assault lawsuit against Sean 'Diddy' Combs after Jane Doe chose not to disclose her identity, as required by the court.
- The court previously denied Jane Doe's request to proceed anonymously, citing the seriousness of the allegations and insufficient evidence of harm from revealing her identity.
- Attorney Tony Buzbee, representing Jane Doe, stated that fear, media scrutiny, and perceived danger influenced her decision not to proceed with the case.
- Combs' legal team highlighted this as the second case brought by Buzbee's team to be dismissed, asserting that other pending lawsuits also lack merit.
- Combs remains incarcerated on federal charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, with a trial set for May 2025, while other plaintiffs in separate lawsuits face an April 10 deadline to reveal their identities.
