Kanye West has been dragged to court once again. This time, he is facing a breach of contract lawsuit filed by a former Yeezy staffer.
The plaintiff’s name is Dora Szilagyi. In the legal docs obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, she claimed she was hired to be Yeezy’s “Director of Product Innovation” in June 2021, but Ye wanted her to quit the job so she could work for him full-time.
Dora was reportedly promised a $275,000 severance payment if she was fired without reasons after September 1, 2021. Unfortunately, she said she didn’t get the money when she was let go in mid-December of that year. According to TMZ, Dora “doesn’t believe Kanye or his company ever intended to follow through on the severance package and only dangled it to lure her from Adidas.”
Ye’s new legal trouble arrived just months after Katelyn Mooney, a Brooklyn-based creative director, filed a $110,000 lawsuit against him. Katelyn alleged that he failed to pay her for a last-minute photo shoot on September 13.
That aside, Ye received good news in March regarding his battery case. The “Donda” artist reportedly didn’t face any charges after he grabbed and threw a female photographer’s cell phone back in January.
According to TMZ, the Ventura Co. District Attorney’s Office revealed on Wednesday, March 15 that the phone had only suffered “minor damage” to its $30 protective case. It was also said that the paparazzo declined to press charges against the ex-husband of Kim Kardashian.
