Real Housewives of Orange County newbie Katie Ginella has been named in yet another legal issue. According to reports from In Touch, the freshman-season RHOC star is being sues by a man who was arrested for false claims made my Katie.
“A man named Sidnei Silva filed a lawsuit against Katie, 40, in March 2016.” She was accused of “calling police with fake allegations that led to a man being arrested for false imprisonment.” Allegedly, Sidnei had an incident with Katie on the roadway on April 12, 2015.

Is Katie a Karen?

Sidnei “claimed she followed him all the way to his house and ‘parked her vehicle behind’ his work van outside his residence. “[Katie] exited her vehicle and confronted him aggressively.” The suit continued, “The man said he pulled out his cell phone to tape Katie in an effort to protect himself, which led to her calling 911 to ‘falsely report a crime.”

Allegedly, Katie told the 911 operator that he was “preventing her from leaving the scene.” However, Sidnei was adamant he was “in no way preventing or stopping Katie from getting inside her car and leaving the scene.”

“When police arrived minutes later … [Katie] again communicated to them that [Sidnei] had blocked her path and prevented her from getting inside her vehicle and leaving.”

The lawsuit against Katie:

“As a result of [Katie’s] allegations, the police initially arrested [Sidnei] for false imprisonment, disorderly conduct, and reckless driving,” the lawsuit said. “Upon further investigation, the police determined that [Katie] was the primary aggressor and that her allegations against [Sidnei] were false.”

Katie’s call and her subsequent false allegations resulted in Sidnei getting thrown to the ground, injured and arrested.” He said that he was forced to hire lawyers to fight the charges that ended up being dismissed.

Additionally, Sidnei said he “spent $12,625 on legal fees to defend himself. He said Katie should be held liable for the fees.” Sidnei “accused Katie of slander.”

Show me the money:

Sidnei demanded over $100,000 in damages from Katie.

“According to the court docket, Katie never responded to the case and a default judgment of $112,945.00 was entered 2018.”
