Court Tosses Most Claims in Lawsuit
On August 14, 2025, a judge dismissed the majority of sexual harassment and mistreatment claims filed by former Making the Band 2 singer Sara Rivers against Sean “Diddy” Combs, ruling in favor of Combs and striking most accusations “with prejudice”—meaning they cannot be refiled.([turn0search4], [turn0search6])
Rivers had alleged she faced harassment during her time on Making the Band 2, but the court’s decision significantly weakens her case, though one claim remains pending review.([turn0search6])
Context & Legal Strategy
This legal victory follows a string of partial wins for Diddy. Just last month, he was acquitted of major charges in his federal sex-trafficking trial and continues to fend off multiple civil claims.([turn0news25], [turn0news27], [turn0news28])
His legal team is also aggressively defending against cases tied to defamation and media allegations—actively suing media platforms and dismissing others—all while preparing for his upcoming sentencing on lesser counts
