Jay-Z seeks to recover $119K from godmother of man who claims to be his son

Jay-Z filed legal documents to block a $119,000 judgment against Lillie Coley from being discharged in her bankruptcy proceedings.

The judgment arose from conduct involving fraud and harassment, not an ordinary financial obligation, according to Jay-Z's filing.

The case is linked to Rymir Satterthwaite, who claims Jay-Z is his biological father; Jay-Z has denied the allegations.

Jay-Z's legal team argues the debt should survive bankruptcy because it was tied to Coley's fraudulent statements and misrepresentations designed to harass him.

Coley has asked the court to dismiss Jay-Z's petition, and the bankruptcy case remains ongoing.
