There is nothing new about people disputing over the estate of dead relatives. However, the story is tweaked a bit when the estate is valued so high. Reports are saying the children of long time Lakers' owner Jerry Buss are fighting it out to see who gets what. Also, after his death, his mansion in Playa del Rey was put on the market for close to $6 Million.
In the lives of the rich and famous, wills, trusts and estates might as well have big red targets on them.
Whenever one of these disputes take place, there always seems to be one last person who tries to get his or her fingers in the honey pot. According to TMZ Sports, a Los Angeles woman is trying to get in on Jerry Buss' nest egg:
"The war over Jerry Buss' fortune just took a shocking turn -- with a mysterious woman claiming she's the secret daughter of the late Lakers owner...but Jerry's family is calling B.S. According to heavily redacted legal docs filed in L.A. County Superior Court, the woman describes herself as an 'omitted child'...who is entitled to just as much of Jerry's estate as his other 6 children. It appears from the docs that the woman claims she's the oldest of Jerry's children...but all of the details about why she's convinced she's the fruit of his loins is redacted in the legal papers."
The report goes on to say that the woman has met quite a lot of friction from Buss' other children, and according to LA Curbed, there is good reason behind the resistance:
"SoCal legend, and long-time Lakers owner Jerry Buss, who died earlier this year, built himself a pretty hideous mansion in Playa del Rey back in 1998. (Someone obviously disagrees--after just a week on the market; the house has a pending sale.) Asking price is %5.95 Million."
