The recent passing of Estelle Getty is back in the news today. In court documents filed before her death and just obtained by ET, it appears there was a battle going on over her estate among her two sons and Estelle's caregiver. All were named as co-trustees.
In the documents, one son alleged that Estelle's caregiver improperly borrowed over $40,000 from the trust, used Getty's credit card for his personal use, and, with the other son, sold off the family's New York co-op. He also wanted the caregiver removed as co-trustee.
But last April, three months before Estelle died, all three worked things out and agreed to settle.
