Diddy Fights King Combs Yacht Party Lawsuit From Jail

Diddy‘s got a mountain of civil lawsuits to fight now that his criminal case is over, and he’s getting started while he sits in a federal detention center … and one of them is a suit involving his son Christian “King” Combs and a yacht party.

The Bad Boy founder is a codefendant in a civil suit accusing King of forcing himself on a woman on a yacht Diddy allegedly chartered.

In new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Diddy is arguing the case, filed in California, should be tossed because the court has no jurisdiction over him … he says he’s been a Florida resident for more than 5 years and points out he’s been incarcerated in a Brooklyn jail since his September 2024 arrest.

Diddy also says the lawsuit incorrectly claims he chartered the yacht where the alleged assault occurred … he says another company chartered the yacht and he didn’t sign any charter agreement.

As we reported … a woman sued Diddy and King back in April 2024, claiming she was a steward on a yacht Diddy chartered in 2022, and alleging King sexually assaulted her onboard.

Diddy’s saying he shouldn’t be a defendant in a lawsuit filed in California, but the docs do say King is a Cali resident … though it’s worth noting the Combses are being repped by the same attorneys and King is also seeking the lawsuit’s dismissal.

A judge has yet to rule … and Diddy’s also awaiting an answer — and a response from prosecutors — from the judge in his federal criminal case after filing a new motion for bail as he awaits his Oct. 3 sentencing for a couple convictions on prostitution charges.
