The Mega Edition: Jay-Z Responds To Jane Doe's Accusations (12/27/24)

Beyond The Horizon

In the case 24-cv-07975-AT, Defendant Shawn Carter (also known as Jay-Z) has filed a motion opposing the plaintiff's request to proceed anonymously under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 10(a), which generally requires parties to be named in public court proceedings. Carter argues that the plaintiff's anonymity could prejudice his ability to defend against the claims and that public interest and transparency in judicial proceedings favor disclosure of the plaintiff's identity. Alternatively, he seeks dismissal of the complaint under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(1), asserting that the court lacks subject matter jurisdiction over the claims presented.
Carter's motion emphasizes that anonymity in litigation is an extraordinary measure requiring strong justification, which he claims the plaintiff has failed to provide. Furthermore, he questions the legal sufficiency of the plaintiff's claims and argues that the court should dismiss the case if it determines it lacks jurisdiction or if the plaintiff does not adequately establish the grounds for proceeding anonymously. The motion seeks to resolve these procedural and jurisdictional issues before addressing the substantive merits of the complaint.
