Lisa Marie Presley’s mother assured in January this year that she had questioned the “authenticity and validity” of her daughter Lisa Marie Presley’s inheritance which was revised in 2016.
After questioning the validity of her daughter Lisa Marie Presley’s will, Elvis Presley’s ex-wife, Priscilla Presley, managed to reach a settlement.
“There is a settlement, the families are happy, united and excited for the future,” Priscilla’s attorney, Ronson Simon, said in statements collected by the American press after leaving the hearing. Lynn Scaduto of the Los Angeles County Superior Court.
The legal dispute began four days after Lisa Marie Presley’s memorial, when lawyers for her mother filed a petition in a Los Angeles court questioning the “authenticity and legality” of a 2016 legacy amendment that ” Known as the “King of Rock”. ,
Through that letter, Priscilla Presley embodied her disbelief that her daughter had removed her and the man who helps her in business, Barry Siegel, as trustees of the will and replaced her with her grandsons Riley and Took Benjamin Keough, who committed suicide in 2020. When he was only 27 years old.
Doubt centered on the validity of his daughter’s signature because the amendment had not been witnessed or notarized, because the change had not been communicated to her while Lisa Marie Presley was alive, and because the name Priscilla was misspelled on the document.
Now, the settlement, the details of which were not disclosed, must be endorsed with a judicial document signed by both parties before June 12 and another hearing scheduled for August 4.
Riley Keough’s legal representative, Justin Gold, assured CNN on Tuesday that he is “very happy” and “if not, I would not have agreed” to the settlement.
