Khloe Kardashian is on a negative streak with former employees.
Khloe & “KhloeMoney” Get Sued By Former Assistant
The Good American co-founder has been sued for a second time in ONE MONTH! She was recently sued by a GA employee and now, she’s being sued by a former assistant. In documents obtained by The Blast, Khloe is being sued by Matthew Manhard.
Matthew Manhard is the former assistant suing for several things.
Both Khloe and her company “KhloMoney” are being sued. The ex-employee to KK says he was hired on or about January 28, 2019, by KhloMoney as a “household assistant to Kardashian (Khloe).”
He claims Khloe directly controlled his wages, hours, and/or working conditions. In his claim, Manhard alleges that KhloMoney’s payroll policies and practices were intended to purposefully avoid the payment of overtime and double-time wages as required by California law.
Ex-Assistant Accuses Khloe Of Skipping Out On Paying Overtime Wages
This allowed KhloMoney to illegally profit and gain an unfair advantage over competitors who complied with the law. Manhard is informed and believes, and upon such information and belief, alleges that at all times relevant to this Complaint, Manhard was a non-exempt employee who was entitled to overtime wages.
In addition to unpaid overtime wages, Manhard claims he suffered a knee injury in May 2022. He reported it to Khloe and requested a leave of absence.
When he was ready to come back, he notified KK who told him she didn’t have work for him. Manhard believes and claims Khloe terminated his employment on or about Nov 9, 2022.
Manhard Believes He Was Wrongfully Terminated
Our document states, “Manhard has suffered both general and special damages in the past and present and will continue to suffer such damages in the future for an unknown period of time. Manhard has also suffered and continues to suffer losses in earnings and other employment benefits, as well as past and future non-economic injury. This has caused damage to Manhard’s professional reputation, as well as Manhard’s income and other benefits. Moreover, Manhard has also suffered, and continues to suffer, extensive general damages in the form of anxiety, anguish, and mental suffering.”
He too claims he did not receive mandated meal and rest breaks.
Manhard claims he was able to perform the essential job duties with reasonable accommodation for his disabilities and would have not imposed an undue hardship on KhloMoney.
There hasn’t been a specific dollar amount requested for specific damages.
We recently reported that Good American was sued by a former employee.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, one model who did work for the company in November 2021 claims she wasn’t paid on time. Now, instead of $3,500 for a day’s worth of work, she wants to be paid over $100,000.
Model Jourdan Whitehead is suing Good American for a penalty late fee after not paying her on time for services performed over the course of one day.
The documents, which were filed in Los Angeles county on Wednesday, February 15, state that Whitehead is a “professional actor who earns a living by working as an actor in the production or broadcasting of motion pictures.”
According to the California Labor Code, the “production or broadcasting of motion pictures” means “the development, creation, presentation, or broadcasting of theatrical or televised motion pictures, televised programs, commercial advertisements, music videos, or any other moving images, including, but not limited to, productions made for entertainment, commercial, religious, or educational purses, whether these productions are presented by means of film, tape, live broadcast, cable, satellite transmission, Webcast, or any other technology that is now in use or may be adopted in the future.”
