## Resource

Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, is facing a new civil trial due to an incident in 2016. Bryana Bongolan, a creative director, accuses him of threatening her over a balcony at Cassie Venturas apartment. Bongolan previously testified about this during Diddys criminal trial last year. The trial is set for May 3, 2027, and Diddy, along with Bad Boy Entertainment and CeOpco LLC, are named in the lawsuit. Diddy is currently serving a 50-month prison sentence for a federal criminal conviction and is also facing another civil lawsuit from Clayton Howard, a former escort seeking $20 million.
