Jay-Z Rape Accuser’s Claim Is Too Old to Pursue, Lawyer Says


Jay-Z’s lawyer Alex Spiro filed new court documents claiming that a lawsuit accusing him of rape in 2000 is now too old to pursue in civil court

In December 2022, the New York City Council amended the law to allow a two-year window for people to come forward with historical claims that might have otherwise passed the statute of limitations. But the GMV Law was not enacted until December 19, 2000, three months after the FAC claims the conduct occurred, and cannot apply retroactively to create a cause of action unavailable to Plaintiff at the time in question.” In a lawsuit filed earlier this month, Jay-Z’s accuser, identified only as “Jane Doe,” claimed she was raped by the rapper and fellow musician Sean “Diddy” Combs at an MTV Video Music Awards afterparty in 2000.
