Kylie Jenner’s legal team is facing another round of courtroom scrutiny. Dinora Carolina Cabria Amaya, a former housekeeper employed across several of the 29-year-old beauty mogul’s California properties, filed a civil lawsuit on November 5, marking the fourth legal action brought against The Kardashians star by former household staff members in just seven months.
According to court documents obtained by NBC News, Amaya—who worked for Jenner from March 2025 until her termination in February 2026—names Jenner alongside two staff members, Laura Dooley and Itzel Sibrian. The complaint alleges disability discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination, and multiple California labor code violations.
In the filing, Amaya details a series of troubling workplace incidents, including an occasion in which she claims she was accidentally locked inside one of Jenner’s closets. Amaya alleges that Dooley “laughed and mocked her” while withholding the access code needed to exit, triggering a severe panic attack. The suit further claims that in September 2025, an unsecured canister discharged pepper spray directly into Amaya’s eyes, and that the following month, she was bitten by a dog while cleaning a backyard doghouse. Amaya contends that after reporting her injuries, staff members deliberately escalated her workload:
“Defendants were making her life miserable so she would quit,” the lawsuit alleges.
The filing arrives on the heels of separate lawsuits brought against Jenner earlier this year by another former housekeeper alleging discrimination in April and a former private chef claiming in June that an unsustainable workload contributed to a miscarriage.
Jenner’s attorney, Michael Rhodes, swiftly pushed back against the new complaint, pointing out that all four former employees are represented by the exact same legal counsel:
“It’s clear that this lawyer wants to use publicity to try and extract an unwarranted payday. We’re not going to be intimidated into doing that. As such, we’ll defend these meritless cases vigorously and look forward to telling our side of the story,” Rhodes said in a statement.
Amaya’s attorney, Della Shaker, fired back immediately, rejecting accusations of a cash grab:
“Attempts to intimidate and silence my clients may have worked before they had someone willing to stand up for them. Those days are over,” Shaker told NBC News, adding that her firm intends to “litigate the facts, not trade insults,” and is “prepared with evidence, not publicity stunts.”
