Brandy, the famous R & B singer, has a mom who once had close ties with the Kardashian family. We reported on this earlier, but the story is now developing! Now, Sonja Norwood is regretting the friendship as she prepares for a long legal battle with the Kardashians. The battle has already been going on for a couple of years and has only recently hit the court system. Sonja is suing the Kardashian family for unauthorized charges on her credit card, and Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, and Robert Jr, Kardashian are all named in the lawsuit. But Sonja is not thrilled that it has reached this point.

“I did not want to commence litigation against the Kardashian family without conducting an exhaustive investigation into the charges and discussing all options, including criminal prosecution, with my family,” Norwood said in a statement Tuesday.

“After Ray J and Brandy urged me not to file criminal charges because of their prior friendship, I decided to afford the Kardashians an opportunity to resolve this matter without a lawsuit,” Norwood said. “When the fraudulent charges were brought to their attention, they apologized profusely, and advised us, through their attorneys, that they would pay the debt in full. However, they have since reneged on that promise.”

The claim is that only one purchase was authorized, and the end result is a $120,000 AmEx bill. Sonja is seeking the return of the funds, with 10% interest. Another issue irking Norwood right now is the fact that the Kardashians used their retailing stores to take advantage of her. She is very excited about seeing them held accountable for this situation.
