Jay Z Chooses Out of Court Settlement of Paternity Suit

Paternity lawsuit involving Jay Z will apparently be settled out of court.
According to RadarOnline.com, the rap mogul will likely pay a settlement to Rymir Satterthwaite, a son he reportedly fathered 21 years ago.

“Ultimately the case will probably be settled out of court,” Lillie Collie, Satterthwaite’s legal guardian, told Radar.


The settlement concludes Satterthwaite’s grievance with Jay Z., who managed to avoid Satterthwaite’s four-year attempt to unsuccessfully obtain the entertainer’s DNA by giving the court his work address in Manhattan.

As for what he’ll do with the settlement, Radar notes that Satterthwaite will reportedly use the money to pay for medical bills, in addition to his mounting legal fees.
“Nobody wants this to drag out anymore,” Collie said.

Satterthwaite isn’t the first child Jay Z hasn’t acknowledged publicly. The 45-year-old rhymesayer has a 12-year-old son, Isa Jael, who lives with his mother in Trinidad.
According to reports Jay Z purchased a mansion for the mother and pays her a monthly stipend to stay out of his and wife Beyoncé’s lives.
