AMEND TO $400 MILLION

 IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS

COUNTY DEPARTMENT, LAW DIVISION

CHYVETTE A. VALENTINE,
Plaintiff,
v.
SCOTTIE PIPPEN, LARSA PIPPEN, CARL PIPPEN, JASON GILLER, et al.,
Defendants.

Case No.: 2024L002166
Courtroom: 2209
Judge: Hon. Maire Aileen Dempsey

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION TO AMEND COMPLAINT TO INCREASE DAMAGES TO $400 MILLION AND SUPPLEMENT FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS

NOW COMES the Plaintiff, Chyvette A. Valentine, pro se, and respectfully moves this Honorable Court pursuant to 735 ILCS 5/2-616 to amend her Complaint to increase the prayer for relief to $400 million and to supplement the factual allegations supporting the amended amount, and in support thereof states as follows:

1. Plaintiff originally filed the above-captioned complaint alleging long-standing patterns of harassment, stalking, defamation, emotional distress, employment interference, and other actionable misconduct by the named Defendants.
2. Since the original filing and subsequent proceedings, Plaintiff has experienced escalating threats, stalking, and emotional trauma, including physical proximity by Defendants and their agents in a continuing campaign to intimidate, silence, and cause her harm.
3. On June 30, 2025, Plaintiff submitted written correspondence to Chief Judge Timothy C. Evans regarding the ongoing harassment, stalking, and credible threats to her safety. This letter specifically identified collusion involving Congressman Danny K. Davis, Congressman Jonathan Jackson, and Governor J.B. Pritzker, alleging active cover-up and conspiracy to harm Plaintiff and interfere with legal redress.
4. On July 22, 2025, Plaintiff publicly posted an official legal update and notice regarding the case, tagging the Dirksen Federal Building as the location for public awareness and lawful notice under the circumstances.
5. On July 23, 2025, the Dirksen Federal Building was placed on lockdown following a knife-wielding incident. While Plaintiff is not responsible for this event, the timing and context are concerning and should be noted by this Court in relation to the public notice issued the day prior.
6. On July 25, 2025, Plaintiff's local postal facility was reportedly set on fire, further evidencing the heightened danger and potential retaliatory efforts aimed at silencing Plaintiff and obstructing her communications.
7. During this time, Larsa Pippen was publicly documented as attending the Beyoncé Cowboy Tour in Las Vegas, based on social media videos and TikTok excerpts, suggesting her presence in proximity to Plaintiff.
8. On August 7, 2025, Defendants or individuals believed to be acting at their direction were sighted near Plaintiff’s current temporary residence, escalating her fear and concern for her personal safety.
9. In the same manner and pattern of behavior previously exhibited, the Defendants have continued their harassment at Plaintiff’s place(s) of employment, using identical tactics to stalk, intimidate, and force separation. Notably, Defendants appeared in person at her place of employment at Applebee’s in Gulfport, Mississippi, creating a hostile and unsafe work environment that directly forced her termination. This incident is consistent with their established and documented pattern of interfering with Plaintiff’s employment and personal stability.
10. Defendants have recruited fans and/or agents to apply for positions at Plaintiff’s workplace at “Hilton Grand Vacations” with the intent to stalk, harass, and gather intelligence, placing not only the Plaintiff but also her co-workers in jeopardy.
11. Plaintiff has also learned that Congressman Danny Davis, who was repeatedly identified in her filings and communications, has publicly announced retirement, which Plaintiff asserts is directly tied to his role in this matter.
12. Due to the wrongful dismissal of this case, Plaintiff and her family have suffered immense emotional, mental, and physical distress and remain under continuous threat.
13. The wrongful dismissal, failure to grant a protective order, and refusal to address Plaintiff’s safety concerns are seen as part of a deliberate effort to cause her harm, suppress her claims, or lead to her demise.

14. Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Court grant leave to amend the complaint to:

a.        Increase the damages sought to $400 million to reflect the continued and aggravated harm;

2. Supplement the complaint with newly developed facts post-filing to support her claims;
3. Reconsider and reinstate this matter to ensure Plaintiff’s rights to due process and equal protection are upheld.

WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully prays that this Honorable Court:

A. Grant leave to file the Amended Complaint reflecting the updated damage claim of $400 million;
B. Accept and consider the supplemental allegations supporting ongoing endangerment, collusion, and conspiracy;
C. Reinstate the matter for adjudication on the merits;
D. Grant any and all other relief this Court deems just and proper.

Respectfully submitted,

/s/ CHYVETTE A. VALENTINE
Pro Se Plaintiff
