He is not allowed to try any case within the five boroughs of New York as well as Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, Orange, Dutchess, and Sullivan counties
Attorney Tony Buzbee, who has filed multiple lawsuits against music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, has been denied the ability to practice law in the Southern District of New York.
According to Complex, the lawyer, who had to dismiss a lawsuit filed against Diddy and recording artist Jay-Z recently, is not allowed to try any case within the five boroughs of New York as well as Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, Orange, Dutchess, and Sullivan counties. This is not good news for the attorney, who has filed several lawsuits against Diddy in the past year.
Court reporter Meghann Cuniff posted the ruling on her social media account stating that the ruling came from the Committee on Grievances for the Southern District of New York. That committee is responsible for investigating complaints of attorney misconduct.

With the recent ruling, he will have to include the denial letter each time he wants to pursue a case within the Southern District of New York.
Brooklyn rapper Jay-Z is now in the clear after Buzbee dismissed the lawsuit against the “Hard Knock Life” lyricist, but the attorney has about 12 other suits against Diddy that may be in jeopardy due to this recent ruling against Buzbee.
CNN reported that attorneys for Diddy say that Doe dropping her lawsuit means that the other numerous allegations against Combs were also false.
“This is another confirmation that these lawsuits are built on falsehoods, not facts…[in] case after case filed by individuals hiding behind anonymity.”
