Jane Doe’s Identity Failure Leads to Diddy Lawsuit Dismissal
A U.S. District Court judge has dismissed a sexual assault lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs after the anonymous plaintiff, referred to as Jane Doe, failed to refile her complaint under her real name by the court-mandated deadline of March 20, 2025.
The lawsuit, filed in October 2024, alleged that Combs assaulted the plaintiff at a party in 1995. In a March 6 ruling, Judge Lewis J. Liman ordered that the plaintiff must proceed using her real identity, emphasizing the importance of transparency in legal proceedings. The plaintiff did not comply with this order, nor did she request an extension, leading to the dismissal of the case.
Combs’ legal team welcomed the dismissal, stating that this is the second case brought by attorney Tony Buzbee against Combs to be dismissed in its entirety. They criticized the proliferation of anonymous claims, asserting that such cases lack legal merit and are driven by media attention.
Attorney Tony Buzbee, representing the plaintiff, expressed no concern over the dismissal, indicating that his firm will continue to represent other clients with similar allegations against Combs. Buzbee, who is not licensed to practice in the Southern District of New York, has withdrawn from these federal cases, with co-counsel handling formal appearances.
Despite this dismissal, Combs continues to face multiple other lawsuits and criminal charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, to which he has pleaded not guilty. His criminal trial is scheduled to begin in May 2025.
