(Radio.com) Earlier this month TMZ moved to dismiss a defamation lawsuit brought by rapper Marques Andre Johnson. The suit stems from TMZ's initial incorrect identification of the plaintiff as the Wu-Tang Clan affiliated rapper who had cut off his own private part.

The rapper who committed that act is named Andre Johnson, and performs under the name Christ Bearer, but many outlets reported the news incorrectly based on TMZ's report.

The Hollywood Reporter has learned that TMZ's attorneys are moving to dismiss on the basis the statute of limitations has expired. Read some of the details here.
