Dora Explores Contract Litigation

Over the last decade, kiddie icon Dora the Explorer has gone to a lot of exotic places -- but none as potentially scary as her latest destination:  New York County Supreme Court in Manhattan.

Actress Caitlin Sanchez (left), who has voiced the Nickelodeon cartoon star (right) for the past three years, is suing the network for a reported $7 million.  The 14-year-old Sanchez was paid more than $5,000 an episode, but says that she's been required to do up to 100 promotional events a year without pay.
