Brandy's Mom Explains Lawsuit Against Kardashians
Originally posted 02/06/2008 03:30PM
Sonja Norwood's first choice was to avoid suing the Kardashians for alleged credit card abuse, but, she says, they gave her no other choice.
"I did not want to commence litigation against the Kardashian family without conducting an exhaustive investigation into the charges and discussing all options, including criminal prosecution, with my family," Norwood said in a statement Tuesday.
In the lawsuit, which names Kim Kardashian as well as siblings Khloe, Kourtney and Robert Jr., the R&B singer's mother claims she had only given authorization for one purchase on the Norwood American Express card. Kim at the time was a stylist for Brandy, and Brandy's brother, Ray J, also appeared in the infamous sex tape with Kim.

Brandy's Mom: Kim Kardashian Abused My Credit Card
Originally posted 02/04/2008 09:00PM
R&B singer Brandy Norwood's mother filed a lawsuit Monday against Kim Kardashian accusing her of running up more than $120,000 in credit card charges without permission.
The suit, which also names Kardashian's siblings Khloe, Kourtney and Robert Jr., alleges they ran up the charges on the mother's card in 2006 and 2007. It seeks the return of the money plus 10 percent interest.
In a statement, the Kardashians denied the allegations.
"The charges against the Kardashians are meritless," the statement said. "Both Kim and Khloe were employed by the Norwoods and never used their credit cards without their express authorization. The Kardashian family looks forward to proving the absurdity of these claims in a court of law."

No Criminal Charge for Brandy over Fatal Car Crash
Originally posted 12/28/2007 03:00PM
R&B singer Brandy will not be charged with a crime for a fatal car crash last year, authorities said Friday.
"The City Attorney's Office has decided not to file misdemeanor
vehicular manslaughter charges against Brandy Norwood in the case stemming from a Dec. 30, 2006, traffic collision," that office's spokesman Frank Mateljan said in a statement.
"After conducting a thorough investigation, which included consulting with some of the top accident reconstruction experts in the country, City prosecutors concluded that there was insufficient evidence from which a jury could find Ms. Norwood guilty of such a charge beyond a reasonable doubt," he said.
