A federal judge has dismissed singer Dawn Richard’s lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs, ruling that most of her allegations of emotional and physical abuse, including groping, were not filed in the required year after the described events.
In a decision dated Friday and made public on Monday, Judge Katherine Polk Failla said Richard may pursue one allegation against the hip-hop mogul in state court, but cannot revive claims that exceeded New York’s statute of limitations by more than a decade.
