jay-z loses appeal against lawyer who made the 2000 rape claim

The Rundown

jay-z tried to revive his old extortion and defamation lawsuit against the lawyer who originally leveled that 2000 rape claim, but a court just said nah. the lawyer gets to recoup his legal costs since the case was already dismissed. it is a massive L for jay-z, basically shutting down his attempt to keep fighting the battle. he is out of moves and the courts are not messing around this time.
