Rockfeller works for a private company that is contracted by the Fontainebleau to do their valet parking.
The valet, claimed he was assaulted by James, 42, who became angered because her car was taking too long to be delivered. James was apparently out with friends and left the hotel shortly before 5 a.m.
Police said James and the driver of the vehicle were "initially uncooperative with the investigating officer."
According to a Miami Beach press release, James was "apparently intoxicated" with bloodshot eyes and smelled of alcohol on her breath.
