A civil lawsuit accusing rapper Jay-Z of raping a 13-year-old girl alongside Sean 'Diddy' Combs in 2000 has been voluntarily dismissed. Jay-Z calls the day a victory.

A civil lawsuit accusing rapper Jay-Z , whose real name is Shawn Carter, of raping a 13-year-old girl alongside Sean 'Diddy' Combs in 2000 has been voluntarily dismissed. Court documents filed on Friday local time in New York reveal that the case, brought forward by an anonymous woman identified as Jane Doe, was withdrawn. In a statement released on the Roc Nation X page, Jay-Z expressed his relief, calling the day a victory.

He stated that the civil suit was 'never going anywhere', characterizing the accusations as a 'fictional tale' that was 'laughable, if not for the seriousness of the claims'. He emphasized that he would not wish this experience on anyone.The filing in federal court in Manhattan confirms that Jane Doe voluntarily dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled. According to the accuser, the alleged assault occurred after she was taken to a private residence hosting an after-party for the MTV Video Music Awards in New York City. A representative of Sean 'Diddy' Combs has not yet commented on the lawsuit.
