AceShowbiz - Kim Kardashian is being sued for a car crash she had two years ago. According to Gossip Cop, Rafael Antonio Linares filed a lawsuit against the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star, whom he accused of "negligently" hitting his car back in 2014.
In the court papers filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, Rafael says that he "sustained personal injuries which caused and will continue to cause pain, discomfort and physical disability" to him. He's seeking financial compensation for past and future medical expenses, the cost of the repair of his car and some money he had to spend to during the "loss of use" of his vehicle.
Rafael also notes in his filing that he was "gainfully employed" before the accident happened, but has since been "deprived of earnings." He also wants Kim to indemnify him for his "loss of income" and the cost of the litigation.
The accident happened on Sunset Boulevard near Benedict Canyon Drive in Beverly Hills on March 11, 2014. Kim and Rafael's vehicles collided after she made a left turn at an intersection. An eyewitness said that Rafael was going in the opposite direction and driving straight, despite having his right turn signal on. Sources close to Kim described the damage as "minimal" and claimed that the guy was "totally fine."
Despite being sued, the 35-year-old star seemed to be in good spirits when she was spotted leaving a salon in Beverly Hills on Tuesday, March 1. She wore an all-black ensemble which she teamed with a pair of grey sports shoes and sunglasses.
