Kyle Richards Takes Legal Action Against Sister Kim Richards: A Look at the Condo Eviction Saga
Reality TV personality Kyle Richards took legal action against her sister, Kim Richards, to remove her from a condominium in Encino, California. Kyle filed a lawsuit in January 2025, requesting Kim to vacate the 2-bedroom, 3-bath condo. The lawsuit sought possession of the property and damages of $140 per day for every day Kim overstayed past November 2024. Kim did not respond to the suit, leading to a default judgment in March 2025, requiring her to surrender the property.
In June 2025, the L.A. County Sheriff's Office attempted to serve Kim with the judgment, but she had already moved out of the condo. This allowed Kyle to take possession of the property. The legal action came after reports of Kim's relapse and the family's decision to adopt a 'tough love' approach until she addressed her issues. During the 'RHOBH' season 14 reunion, Kyle and Kathy Hilton shared that Kim was living in Florida and making progress.
The relationship between Kim and Kyle has been tumultuous over the years, with the eviction lawsuit being a significant development in their ongoing struggles. Despite the legal action, the family remains hopeful for Kim's well-being and continues to support her journey towards recovery.
