Lawyer Behind Diddy Sexual Abuse Case Criticized by Judge Over Pattern of ‘Salacious’ Case Filings


A Diddy accuser's lawyer has been criticized by a judge over lawsuits she calls "salacious." The attorney could now face legal sanctions.

Judge Cote’s ruling is notable because Blackburn is currently serving as lead counsel to Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, a producer who filed a sweeping abuse lawsuit against Combs in February. In arriving at that conclusion, the judge cited multiple instances in which Blackburn allegedly filed cases in the wrong court without properly investigating whether it was the right jurisdiction, as well as an incident in which he called a defense attorney “a disgusting racist” amid a dispute over picking a mediator.
