Elsewhere, dozens of people have come forward with civil suits accusing the rapper sexual assault – some of which date back to the 1990s.
Diddy has denied all the allegations against him.
While it's been blow after blow for the music star in the last few months, Diddy's now had a small victory after a judge ordered for one of the civil suits he was facing to be dismissed.
Why has Diddy's civil suit been dismissed?
Yesterday (March 31), US District Court Judge Lewis J. Liman issued an order closing the case in question.

The suit was filed anonymously by someone who only identified herself as 'Jane Doe'.
The suit was filed in October 2014 by Doe, which alleged that she'd been raped by Diddy in 1995 in New York for a Biggie Smalls music video.
But Liman ordered on March 6 that the woman re-file the complaint and use her real name because she could not proceed anonymously.

The unnamed woman failed to do this, thus the case has been closed.
"As of today, March 31, 2025, (Doe) has not filed a complaint in her own name, nor has she sought an extension of time to do so," Liman wrote in his ruling.
What has Jane Doe's legal team said?
Tony Buzbee, the lawyer who was presenting the woman in question, says he doesn't blame her for not wanting to give her name.

In a statement to USA Today, Buzbee said: "In this particular case, Jane Doe opted not to proceed. There is a lot of fear amongst these plaintiffs. I thus can’t blame her."

He continued: "These are tough cases and they are many times re-traumatizing for those who pursue them. Each case stands on its own merit.
"This woman chose not to proceed and subject herself to the media circus and the perceived danger she felt. We have to respect that."
As of October 2024, Buzbee was representing as many as 120 Diddy accusers.
At the time, the lawyer promised to 'expose the enablers who enabled this conduct behind closed doors'.
