Diddy Files Motion to Set Aside $100 Million Judgment … Claiming It’s BS
P. Diddy fighting back against the massive $100 million default judgment leveled against him this week … claiming he never received a copy of the lawsuit — and, even if he had, the statute of limitations ran out years ago.The controversial music mogul filed the emergency motion to set aside the massive judgment Thursday … saying the plaintiff, Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith,never served him with a lawsuit — and, he didn’t know he had to handle the matter until news outlets started reporting on the judgment.
Worth noting … Diddy’s lawyers aren’t just trying to get the case thrown out for failing to serve him properly — they’re denying all wrongdoing wholeheartedly. They say the “facially implausible allegations are completely fabricated.”
Even if the allegations were true — which again, Diddy’s lawyers say they aren’t — they say the statute of limitations ran out nearly 17 years ago.
Diddy’s team’s also slamming the lawsuit as frivolous … ’cause they say the man who filed it is a convicted rapist who is lying about all of the allegations in the lawsuit. They also claim he has a history of filing lawsuits that courts have labeled as frivolous.
ICYMI … Cardello-Smith was awarded $100 million from a judge after Diddy failed to respond to the complaint Cardello-Smith filed in June.
Cardello-Smith claims back in 1997 he and Diddy were having intercourse with a group of women when he felt Diddy’s hand touch his butt. He claims Diddy later spiked his drink and — when he awoke — Diddy implied he’d sexually assaulted Cardello-Smith.
