The Diddy Defendants Move To Dismiss The Shareka Sherrod Allegations (6/29/25)
In the case of Shareka Sherrod v. Sean Combs et al., currently before the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Case No. 24-cv-07977), the Combs Defendants filed a Reply Memorandum of Law in Further Support of their Motion to Dismiss the plaintiff’s amended complaint. The lawsuit, brought by Sherrod, names Sean Combs and a web of affiliated corporate entities—primarily those linked to his Bad Boy entertainment ventures. In their reply brief, the defense argues that the amended complaint fails to meet legal standards required to proceed, emphasizing that the plaintiff’s allegations are legally insufficient, lack specificity, and do not plausibly establish liability under federal or state law.
The Combs Defendants contend that many of Sherrod’s claims are conclusory, speculative, or time-barred, and assert that the corporate entities named have no direct connection to the conduct alleged. They argue that Sherrod has not established the necessary factual basis to pierce the corporate veil or hold Combs personally responsible for the alleged wrongdoing. The reply also reinforces that even if the plaintiff’s allegations were taken as true, they do not amount to a viable cause of action under the applicable legal standards. Accordingly, the Combs legal team urges the court to dismiss the amended complaint in its entirety, with prejudice, and without granting the plaintiff further leave to amend.
