According to court documents obtained by Radar, Kim Kardashian — along with her mother Kris and sisters Khloé and Kylie — are asking a judge to not allow Chyna to seek economic damages during the trial.
Chyna is suing the Kardashian/Jenner family accusing them of spreading lies that she abused her ex-fiancé Rob. She claims the alleged falsehoods were told to E! executives who ended up canceling her reality show, Rob & Chyna.
Chyna is also taking on her ex Rob for posting explicit photos of her online to his 9 million followers without her consent. The trial — which is set to start later this month — will be split into two parts. The first will be Chyna taking on Rob and the second will be her fighting the rest of his family.
In a new motion filed by Kim — along with her mom and sisters — they argue Chyna should not be allowed to seek economic damages at all. They say Chyna is seeking over $100 million in economic damages alone. The family says Chyna is also seeking “upwards of another $200 million in general and punitive damages.”
They call the $100 million sought “absurd.”
The family accuses Chyna of refusing to turn over “meaningful discovery” including her full and complete financial records.
Chyna’s statement of damages demands $36 million from Kim Kardashian for emotional distress, another $36 million for injury to reputation and humiliation, and $36 million for anxiety and betrayal.
She is seeking $44 million in loss of earnings and another $64 million in loss of future earnings. Chyna is also seeking $100 million from Kim in punitive damages.
Chyna wants $19 million in punitive damages from Kris Jenner, $94 million in punitive damages from Kim and Kylie, and $5 million from Khloé.
The ruling is pending.
