Sean “Diddy” Combs accuser has been warned by court in a new ruling to disclose her identity or be ready for her case to be dismissed. A woman identified as Jane Doe is accusing Sean “Diddy” of sexual assault at a party two decades ago.
New York judge Mary Kay Vyskocil of the Southern District has given the woman a timeline of a few days to submit her identification to the court. While the judge recognised Jane’s right to privacy, she emphasised that taking legal action against a prominent figure comes with the expectation of accountability.
Woman’s lawsuit is among six new lawsuits filed against Diddy
The woman’s lawsuit is among the six new lawsuits filed against Sean “Diddy” Combs. Meanwhile, there is speculation that more lawsuits of the same nature are on their way.
In a ruling obtained by Page Six, Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil stated that Jane Doe, who filed her lawsuit anonymously, has chosen to “accuse a famous person of engaging in heinous conduct approximately twenty years ago” and also claims that several businesses were complicit in that conduct. As a result, the judge ruled that Doe “has not carried her burden to show that she is entitled to” anonymity.
Jane Doe has until November 13 to refile her lawsuit using her real name. In her lawsuit, the woman claimed that Diddy invited her and a friend to a private party for a work-related meeting. Once they arrived, the Bad Boy Records producer allegedly threatened them with violence if they did not comply with his sexual demands.
