According to celebrity legal news site The Blast, Nelly is hoping to get the woman who anonymously filed a sexual misconduct lawsuit against him last year to make herself known.
“On January 24, Nelly filed court docs seeking for a Missouri sexual assault lawsuit to be dismissed stating, ‘Without first petitioning the Court to do so, Plaintiff filed her complaint anonymously, standing behind that anonymity as she makes serious allegations that the Complaint makes clear that she is aware will receive public attention,’” The Blast said. “The rapper claims the ‘Jane Doe’ has previously leveled similar allegations in connection with other legal proceedings, and the hip-hop star believes the woman should not be allowed to avoid public scrutiny by hiding ‘behind a cloak of anonymity.’
