Carter
noted
the “idiotic
claims
you
have
levied
against
me”
and alleged
that
before
refiling
the
suit,
Buzbee
had
contacted
the
rapper’s
own
attorney
to
try
to
reach
a
settlement.
“What
he
had
calculated,”
he
alleged
in
the
statement, “was
the
nature
of
these
allegations
and
the
public
scrutiny
would
make
me
want
to
settle.”
In
a
statement
to
E!
News,
Buzbee
said
his
firm
did
send
Carter’s
attorney “a
demand
letter
on
behalf
of
an
alleged
victim.”
That
person,
he
added, “never
demanded
a
penny
from
him.
Instead,
she
only
sought
a
confidential
mediation.”
Buzbee
continued, “As
far
as
the
allegations
in
the
complaint
filed,
we
will
let
the
filing
speak
for
itself
and
will
litigate
the
facts
in
court,
not
in
the
media.”
Carter,
who
shares
daughter
Blue
Ivy,
12,
and
twins Rumi
and Sir,
6,
with
wife Beyoncé,
added
that
his “only
heartbreak”
is
for
his
family.
