Jay-Z Seeks to Keep $119,000 Debt Linked to Paternity Dispute Out of Bankruptcy

Jay-Z has asked a court to stop Lillie Coley, the grandmother of Rymir Satterthwaite, from using bankruptcy to wipe out a $119,000 judgment he says she owes him. The debt comes from years of litigation tied to Satterthwaite's long-running claim that the rapper is his biological father. In court filings, Jay-Z's legal team said the judgment was based on Coley's alleged fraudulent statements and misrepresentations. They also argued that she has spent years harassing him through repeated lawsuits and public claims. Coley has asked the court to dismiss his petition, saying he did not meet several procedural requirements. The case is still ongoing.
