US judge says ‘court will not fast-track the judicial process’ in Jay-Z case citing this
Hindustan TimesShawn ‘Jay-Z’ Carter is facing huge legal woes and public scrutiny as he battles allegations of sexual assault from a woman identified as Jane Doe. The accuser claims that Carter, along with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, drugged and raped her when she was 13 at an after-party following the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards in New York City. “The Court will not fast-track the judicial process merely because counsel demands it.” Lawsuit claims Combs and Carter assaulted woman at after-party Per the lawsuit filed in October, Jane Doe alleges that she was invited to an after-party by a man claiming to be Combs’ limo driver while trying to attend the awards show at Radio City Music Hall. Combs, currently in jail on federal charges including racketeering and sex trafficking, has denied all allegations, calling Buzbee’s lawsuits a “shameless publicity stunts, designed to extract payments from celebrities who fear having lies spread about them.” Complicating matters further, Buzbee himself faces serious accusations in an unrelated case.
