A federal judge in New York issued an order Thursday stating Jay-Z's attorney engaged in "ad hominem" and "inflammatory" attacks against Tony Buzbee.

This ruling followed two motions filed by Jay-Z's attorney Alex Spiro calling for the plaintiff's identity to be divulged and for the outright dismissal of her complaint. Torres denied both requests. In her ruling, Torres wrote, "The Court will not fast-track the judicial process merely because counsel demands it."

The Houston attorney, a flamboyant personality in his own right, has become a key player in the A-list hip-hop scandal.

Buzbee and Jay z’s back and forth in the media has been pretty entertaining these past few weeks, but it may be over soon.

Houston-based trial lawyer Tony Buzbee filed a lawsuit Wednesday morning accusing those representing rapper and businessman Jay-Z of illegally seeking out current and former clients to sue him. The defendants listed in the lawsuit filed in Harris County District Court include: MJ Legal,

Tony Buzbee, the Texas-based attorney who made headlines for filing lawsuits against the music mogul Sean Diddy Combs on behalf of several accusers also filed a lawsuit against Jay-Z.

Jay Z just turned up the heat on his arch-nemesis, Houston Lawyer Tony Buzbee. Yesterday, one of the married lawyer’s side pieces sued him, alleging assault and infecting her with an STD. Buzbee, 55, is married to Frances Moody, 31, just three years ago. The two dated since 2019.
