COURTHOUSE,
April 3 – In late 2024
Houston-based lawsuit Tony
Buzbee was involved in a
number of sexual abuse civil
lawsuit in the U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York, where
Inner City Press covered
them.
It emerged that Buzbee was not
a member of the SDNY bar. Sean
Combs was convicted of some
but not all charges, and
sentenced to 50
months.
Now a case that Sean Carter
a/k/a Jay-Z filed against
Buzbee in Federal court in
Alabama is being transferred
to SDNY, pursuant to a March
31, order, on Patreon here.
Inner City Press said it would
be on the lookout for this
case in SDNY - and was.
On Friday, April
3 the Sean Carter vs Buzee
case arrived in SDNY and was
assigned as luck would have it
to District Judge Andrew L.
Carter; the parties' Alabama
lawyers were told how to apply
pro hac vice. But one
defendant is in SDNY, and
Jay-Z, of course, has Alex
Spiro of Quinn Emanuel. Will
he be appearing? Watch this
site.
The SDNY case is
now Carter v. Buzbee, et al.,
1:26-cv-2775 (Carter)
