Jay-Z’s alleged son calls out “bully tactics” after withdrawing lawsuit
Jay-Z‘s alleged son suddenly dropped his paternity lawsuit against the rapper last week. Days later, Rymire Satterthwaite has spoken out after the decision, revealing he isn’t backing down from his fight.
The 31-year-old man filed a motion to withdraw in the United States District Court for the Central District of California on May 22nd.
Despite the lawsuit being dropped, Satterthwaite took to Instagram to claim that he was continuing his battle while claiming attorneys had bullied him.
“I have not stopped my fight,” he said. “I did withdraw my case, it’s for a reason, y’all. These judges, these lawyers, these celebrity people. They try to use all different types of tactics and call it what you want, bully tactics, and different types of stuff, to, you know, slow it down and just change the narrative. So it’s like, ‘Hey, we gotta step back and play chess, not checkers.’”
The filing from Satterthwaite last week read, “Plaintiff Rymire Satterthwaite Pro Se submits this notice of withdrawal from this complaint as a party to the action. The defendants have not filed an answer to the above complaint.”
Satterthwaite claimed Jay was attempting to silence him about being his father. His initial complaint read, “[Jay-Z] is the biological father of Satterthwaite.”
He claims his mother, Wanda, had sexual relations with Jay and has received “unrelenting efforts by [Jay-Z] and his enablers to suppress the truth and silence those who dared to speak it.”
In response, Jay’s lawyers said, “The fabricated allegations and claims have been addressed – and rejected — in multiple other courts and [Satterthwaite’s] continued harassment of [Jay-Z] and disregard of those orders has already resulted in a contempt order.”
