Houston attorney Tony Buzbee withdrew from a civil lawsuit filed against Bad Boy Entertainment CEO, Sean “Diddy” Combs, after he was barred from practicing in the Southern District of New York.
Court TV reported that Buzbee has removed himself from more than a dozen cases involving the embattled entertainment mogul.
“Texas attorney Tony Buzbee filed to withdraw from 15 suits filed against Diddy after Diddy’s attorneys argued Buzbee isn’t authorized to practice in the southern district of New York,” the legal news site said. “The lawsuits will go on despite Buzbee stepping down.”
