Diddy Defendants Move To Dismiss The Shareka Sherrod Allegations With Prejudice (6/30/25)
In the civil case Shareka Sherrod v. Sean Combs et al., filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, the Combs Defendants submitted a Reply Memorandum of Law in Further Support of their Motion to Dismiss the plaintiff’s amended complaint. Sherrod accuses Combs and a wide array of his affiliated corporate entities—ranging from Daddy’s House Recordings to Bad Boy Entertainment—of serious misconduct, including allegations tied to sexual abuse and trafficking. In response, Combs’s legal team argues that the amended complaint remains legally deficient and should be dismissed in full. The reply memorandum asserts that Sherrod’s claims fail to meet the pleading standards required by federal law and are either too vague, speculative, or untethered from actionable conduct by the defendants.
The defense contends that Sherrod's complaint relies heavily on conclusory statements and lacks specific factual allegations linking Combs or his business entities directly to the alleged misconduct. They also argue that many claims are either time-barred or improperly attempt to impose liability on corporate entities with no demonstrated involvement. Furthermore, the Combs Defendants dispute any basis for piercing the corporate veil or treating the businesses as extensions of Sean Combs personally. The filing reiterates that no further amendments should be permitted and requests that the case be dismissed with prejudice. The request for oral argument signals the defense’s desire to reinforce these positions in open court, possibly anticipating broader implications for Combs’s growing slate of civil litigation.
