A judge ruled that an Alabama woman who alleges she was raped by Jay-Z and Sean 'Diddy' Combs when she was 13 can proceed anonymously in her lawsuit against the rap moguls. The judge cited the woman's right to anonymity at this early stage of the litigation but noted that she may be required to reveal her identity later on if the case progresses.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs is currently in jail in New York awaiting a criminal trial on federal sex trafficking charges. He is facing multiple sexual assault lawsuits, including the one filed by the plaintiff's lawyer, who represents over 150 individuals alleging sexual abuse and exploitation by Combs.
