COURTHOUSE,
March 17 – With Sean Combs in
jail in MDC-Brooklyn, on
October 20 at least five more
civil cases against him were
filed in the U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York. Inner
City Press is covering the
cases.
One of them
is by a John Doe, owner of a
family business renting luxury
cars, who says Combs started
assaulting him at a Ciroc
vodka event in 2022 until
"Professional Athlete 1"
stopped it.
The case was
assigned to Judge Ronnie
Abrams - who on October 25
said a renewed motion to
proceed as John Doe should be
filed 30 days after service.
Jump cut to March
11, when Judge Abrams
docketed: "No later than March
18, 2025, Mr. Buzbee shall
file a letter explaining why
he failed to notify the Court
about this issue earlier and
proposing next steps to
rectify it."
On March 17
Buzbee submitted an order
withdrawing and a letter
including "I believe I am
eminently qualified and should
not be precluded from
representing the Plaintiff in
this action. At this time,
however, my admission status
has become a distraction" -

This case
is John Doe v. Combs, et al.,
1:24-cv-7973 (Abrams)
