have filed a defamation lawsuit against her ex, Ray J, alleging that his recent public statements about them are false and damaging.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"131\" data-end=\"628\">The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, centres on claims made by Ray J (William Ray Norwood Jr) during a May documentary and a September livestream, where he suggested that the Kardashian family was under federal investigation for racketeering.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"131\" data-end=\"628\">Kim and Kris argue that these statements are baseless and have harmed their reputations.<\/p>\n<h2

widespread attention, has frequently made public remarks about her and her family.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"672\" data-end=\"1343\">In the May documentary United States vs. Sean Combs, he stated that
