Jay-Z's attorney, Alex Spiro, argues that Jane Doe's lawsuit alleging rape from 2000 is too old to proceed based on statutory limitations.
The complaint, originally against Sean "Diddy" Combs, was amended to include Jay-Z and relies on the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act (GMV).
Spiro claims the GMV is not retroactive, as it was enacted in December 2000, three months after the alleged incident.
Additionally, the Child Victims Act was deemed inapplicable due to the timelines of the original and revival windows.
A judge has ruled that the accuser can remain anonymous, even as she stands by her allegations despite inconsistencies.
