Los Angeles – Dinora Carolina Cabria Amaya, who worked for Kylie Jenner from March 2025 until February 2026, filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court on Nov. 5 alleging disability discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination and multiple labor violations.

Allegations of confinement and assault

Amaya says she was instructed by staff member Laura Dooley to enter a closet, given a passcode, and then became locked inside against her will. She reports that when she called Dooley for help, Dooley “laughed and mocked her” and refused to provide the access code, leaving Amaya trapped for more than an hour and suffering a panic attack.

Pepper‑spray incident and dog bite

The complaint also details a Sept. 4, 2025 incident in which an unsecured canister of pepper spray discharged into Amaya’s eyes and face while she was cleaning a laundry‑room drawer. After she complained, the lawsuit alleges her workload increased and she was forced to work alone.

On Oct. 28, 2025, Amaya was assigned to clean a doghouse. While performing the task, a dog bit her, though the complaint does not identify the animal’s owner.

Pattern of alleged mistreatment

According to the filing, Jenner’s staff repeatedly increased Amaya’s workload, assigned heavier tasks, and abruptly changed her schedule after she raised concerns about the injuries. The suit states, “Defendants were making her life miserable so she would quit.”

Other lawsuits against Jenner

This case is the fourth lawsuit filed by former members of Jenner’s household staff in the past seven months. Earlier suits include claims of discrimination based on accent and religion, alleged physical abuse by a supervisor, and a miscarriage allegedly caused by excessive physical strain at a birthday party.

Legal response

Michael Rhodes, Jenner’s attorney, called the lawsuits “meritless” and said the plaintiff’s lawyer is seeking publicity for an “unwarranted payday.” He pledged to defend the cases vigorously. A spokesperson for staff member Itzel Sibrian declined comment, and a woman answering a phone number linked to Dooley hung up when asked about her employment.

The lawsuits highlight ongoing disputes over labor practices and employee treatment in high‑profile celebrity households, raising questions about workplace standards and accountability.
