## Resource

Jay-Z is suing his former lawyer, Tony Buzbee, for $190 million, alleging Buzbee fabricated a death threat to cover up his unauthorized practice of law in federal court. Buzbee, who used someone else’s login and was denied bar admission, allegedly pressured the accuser to drop her sexual assault case against Jay-Z — just as his misconduct was exposed. Jay-Z’s team claims the entire legal maneuver was a setup, with Buzbee even sending a demand letter five weeks before meeting his client. The case could triple damages under New York law, and discovery runs until December 2026 — all while Buzbee calls the suit bullying.
