Sean "Diddy" Combs, pictured here in 2023, faces new accusations of sexual assault, which he denies.
A former child actor has accused Sean "Diddy" Combs of sexually assaulting him in 2007 at a networking event in the Hollywood Hills.
The anonymous male accuser filed his lawsuit against Combs this week in California. CNN has obtained a copy of the suit.
The lawsuit is the latest in the mounting and continuous legal troubles for the incarcerated music mogul, who is currently appealing his conviction on federal charges in New York on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, for which he was sentenced to more than four years in prison. He also has a case under active review by the Los Angeles County district attorney's office, according to a spokesperson for that office.
