NFL partner Jay-Z was added to a civil lawsuit brought by a then-13-year-old girl who alleges rape dating back more than 20 years.

Jay-Z’s efforts to dismiss a case accusing him of raping a then-13-year-old girl in 2000 have been denied by a judge, who also granted the “Jane Doe” accuser the ability to proceed anonymously, despite efforts from the rap mogul’s legal team to have her reveal her identity publicly.

Hip-hop artist Jay-Z has had his petition to dismiss a civil rape case against him denied. The New York judge that denied the rapper's petition also ruled that the woman known as Jane Doe could remain anonymous at this stage of the proceedings.
