Kim Kardashian's insurance company has filed a lawsuit against her former security company for their role in the Paris robbery. As a quick reminder, in 2016, five men dressed as police entered Kim's hotel room, bound and gagged her and stole $6.1 million worth of her jewelry.

The lawsuit claims that Pascal Duvier, her former security guard and the rest of this team “negligently, carelessly, and/or recklessly performed their protection, security, monitoring, inspection, and/or surveying of” Kim and they “should have known that they were required to protect, secure, monitor, inspect, and/or survey … using the skill and care reasonably expected of those in this industry.”

The lawsuit is for $6.1 million, the value of the jewelry the robbers stole. One month after the incident, a source confirmed to People that Pascal no longer worked for the family.

“Pascal no longer works for Kim and Kanye, but he wasn’t fired. He instead reassigned himself to another family for professional reasons. Pascal thought that he did let down Kim and didn’t do his job properly in Paris. They all agreed that it was better for Kim and Kanye to hire a completely new security team,” they said.

Pascal would also fill in when other members of the family were out and about. The night of the robbery, for example, a source told People that he was probably out with one of the other sisters because Kim was "safely" in her residence.

According to the Daily Mail, Pascal's company filed for bankruptcy in Germany about ten weeks before the robbery.
