New York Judge Analisa Torres ruled that the woman is Jay Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs are accused Her rape when she was 13 years old can remain unknown for the time being.
Torres decided Thursday that Jane Doe could remain anonymous, but reserved the right to reconsider the decision at a later date. If the case continues, Jane Doe could be asked to reveal her identity, according to a court document obtained by Fox News Digital. Torres also noted that there is “significant interest” from the public in the issue.
The judge also specifically addressed Jay-Z's lawyer (whose legal name is Shawn Carter) in the court document.
“Carter's attorney's relentless submission of combative motions containing inflammatory language and personal attacks is inappropriate, a waste of judicial resources, and unlikely to benefit his client's tactics,” Torres said, referring to Jay-Z's attorney, Alex Spiro.

She continued: “The court will not expedite the judicial process just because the lawyer requests it.”
Earlier this month, the music mogul filed a motion to dismiss the rape claim. He also asked the court to reject the plaintiff's request to proceed anonymously. Jay-Z was accused of raping a minor with Diddy at an MTV VMA after-party in 2000, the documents stated.
In his motion to dismiss, Jay-Z accused Texas-based Tony Buzbee, the attorney representing Jane Doe, of running a “sprawling racketeering odyssey — one whose goal is primary and measured in dollars.”
“Repeated attempts to discredit and discredit the alleged victim advocate is a failed strategy,” Buzbee told Fox News Digital on Thursday.
“Carter’s counsel’s relentless filing of combative motions containing inflammatory language and personal attacks is inappropriate, a waste of judicial resources, and tactically unlikely to benefit his client.”
Spiro did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Spiro wanted to make clear that these contradictions “are not simple… If you look at the time, this could not have happened.”
“I want to make sure this is clear: When people make up an account, whether on purpose or their mind is blank or something, they can always get that basic part of the story right. They can just keep repeating it over and over again, that What happened, that's the basic part, but they'll always mess up the details when nothing's real, and when something doesn't happen, you'll get the details wrong because you weren't really there,” Spiro said.
