The mother of R&B star Brandy has accused socialite Kim Kardashian of committing credit card fraud.
Sonja Norwood filed a lawsuit in L.A. County Superior Court on Monday against the star, after Kardashian allegedly abused the use of a credit card given to her to make "one (and only one)" purchase on behalf of Norwood.
However, Kardashian is accused of giving the American Express card to other members of her family, Khloe, Kourtney and Robert Jr. The three are alleged to have run up debts of $120,635 on the card in 2006 and 2007.
The suit also claims thousands of dollars from the unauthorized payments were charged in the family's Dash and Smooch stores, reports TMZ.com.
Kim Kardashian has dismissed credit card fraud claims against her as "meritless."
Kardashian, who famously dated Brandy's brother Ray J and appeared in a sex tape with him, insists she is innocent.
Her spokesperson says, "The charges against the Kardashians are meritless. 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."
