Kim and Kylie Richards haven’t had the best season together on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”

Their relationship may have gotten more difficult to repair as Kim Richards’ hold on her pit bull, Kingsley, strengthens as people continue to tell her the dog is violent.

The RHOBH cast member has reportedly been served with court papers in regards to her pit bull’s alleged attack of 80-year-old Kay Rozario, according to The Inquisitr.

“Kim Richards was finally served with the court papers on March 2,” Rozario’s attorney, Bill Zuhdi, revealed to Radar Online.

He continued, “She is required to answer no later than March 23, 2015. Kay is extremely happy because it means that we are one step closer to justice being served.”

Kim Richards has reportedly been avoiding the process server, but when one of her children answered the door, the problem couldn’t be avoided any longer.

“Prior to that, Kim hid in her house trying to avoid the server and she would turn off all the lights when the server would ring the bell to deliver her with court papers,” explained a source.

Kingsley reportedly attacked Kyle Richards’ daughter Alexia as well, which caused further conflict between the two sisters. Alexia was reportedly taken to the hospital, where she had to undergo two surgeries on her hand.

Kim Richards reportedly refused to send Kingsley away after the incident. Kim and Kyle Richards have reportedly been estranged for months after filming for RHOBH season 5 wrapped.

“It was a very emotional and raw conversation as Kim described what had happened with the dog and Alexia, but when she revealed that she hoped Kingsley could be trained to be so aggressive, and returned to her home, Kyle just rolled her eyes,” a source stated.
