The Jay-Z musical mogul filed a defamation process against an anonymous woman who previously accused her of raping her at 13, claiming to have been banking on “false and malicious applications” for financial win.

The trial, filed on Monday in the federal court in the South District of Alabama – where the woman was identified only as “Jane Doe” lives – He also accuses her and her extortion lawyers and to be “Motivated without a soul of greed.”

Jay-Z, whose legal name is Shawn Carter, argues that the accusations against him have been “evil efforts to assassinate the impeccable and life-won character” of his personal and professional life.

The woman from a previous process presumed rapper and music producer Sean “Diddy” Combs and Jay-Z sexually assaulted her in 2000 at a MTV Video Music Awards after Manhattan.

Carter strongly denied the accusations. And that The case has been abandoned last month After the woman withdrew the trial against men, in a voluntary dismissal notification signed by Doe’s lawyers.

Combs faces more than 40 sexual assault processes and, as opposed to Carter, was charged on Federal sex and rocket traffic fees. Combs was pleaded not guilty and is in arrest while waiting for a process scheduled for May.

Meanwhile, Carter’s process claims that he “voluntarily admitted” Its representatives that no attack had taken place and accuses her lawyer, Tony Buzbeeto compel it to follow the accusations of extracting a substantial financial solution.

In addition to the demand for defamation against the woman, Carter accuses her and her intentional pursuit lawyers, abuse of process and civil conspiracy.

Buzbee told CNN that the deposit of Alabama “has no legal merit” and that Doe continues to stay through his accusations. He also accused Carter’s investigators of trying to discredit DOE, claiming that they were “caught on the tape by paying people to sue me and my company.” Buzbee further argued that the quotes attributed to Doe in Carter’s process were either manufactured or from someone involving her, calling “another attempt to intimidate and intimidate this poor woman.”

Doe’s other lawyer David Fortney did not respond immediately to CNN requests for comments.

Accusations and inconsistencies

Doe’s account, as detailed in his initial warehouse, claimed that a limousine driver working for the combination offered a walk after a party, where he was supposed to feel “unpleasant and easy” before being sexually agreed by Combs and Jay-Z.

Carter’s process highlights the inconsistencies in her story, in part, taking into account a series of answers that she offered at NBC News in which she also recognized inconsistencies in her memory of events.

However, the woman stood next to her charges against Carter in a statement filed on Monday at the Los Angeles courtyard, in response to a previous trial against Buzbee. Doe said that investigators acting on the behalf of Carter or a lawyer kept by him was close to him, requesting that he signed a statement of statement that withdraws the rape accusations against Carter, who he says he refused to do.

“I felt intimidated and terrified that I was confronted by these two individuals from my door and they knew my name and address of home, despite being anonymous in the New York action,” Doe said in the file.

“Although I finally chose not to follow them, I am by my statements in the action in New York and I think I have a meritorious request against Jay-Z,” she said.

On a February 14th statement Through Carter’s entertainment company, Roc Nation, Carter said: “The fictitious story they created was laughing, if not for the seriousness of the statements. The trauma that my wife, my children, my loved ones and I endured -I can never be resigned. ”

Carter’s trial in Alabama claims that Buzbee and his legal team have “completely manufactured” a narrative for advertising and monetary win, describing their actions as “voluntarily conspired”.

His new trial also raises questions about the events that led to the withdrawal of Doe’s trial, claiming that Doe’s other lawyer, Fortney, told him the day before withdrawal that the case had to be rejected, because Carter would have “threats against Doe’s life.”

Carter’s lawyers deny this statement, describing it in the process as a “bottomless”.

Carter’s process against the woman, who does not name her, noticed that she became aware of her identity at the end of February and says she never met and interacted with her.
