A New Jersey paternity suit alleges hip hop icon Jay Z is the father of a 21-year-old aspiring rapper — and he’s trying to dodge a DNA test to determine if he is the daddy.
The godmother of Rymir Satterthwaite told the New York Daily News that the family was shocked to learn word of the suit became public this week.
“Right now I can't talk to you about it,” she said Thursday about the lawsuit. "We plan to talk to the public soon."
She declined to discuss the specifics, insisting she was only trying to protect her godson.
Beyonce and Jay-Z are courtside at Clippers Vs Brooklyn Nets Basketball game Satterthwaite’s legal guardian, a paralegal named Lillie Coley, filed the suit in a New Jersey civil court in December 2014, the Enquirer reported Wednesday.
The report indicated the paternity question was first raised at least five years ago. Wanda tried to force Jay Z to take a 2010 paternity test after it was determined that another man was not the boy’s father, according to the Enquirer report.
The case was dismissed by New Jersey Superior Court Judge Edward McBride Jr. — but only because the judge ruled that he lacked jurisdiction, according to the Enquirer.
Jay-Z’s lawyer successfully argued that the superstar lived in Manhattan, not the Garden State, according to the Enquirer.
