Prince’s Heirs Go to Court in Latest Round of Infighting Over Estate


Prince's heirs have gone to court against two of the artist's former associates in the latest round of the long and expensive battle over his estate.

The lawsuit, made public Wednesday in Delaware court, pits four of the artist’s heirs against two of his former business associates in a fight over control of Prince Legacy LLC. The process of settling Prince’s estate has been marred by legal battles nearly every step of the way, largely because he died in 2016 without leaving a will — a tragic irony for an artist who had fought tenaciously for control of the rights to his music. The estate has released several boxed sets loaded with unreleased material from Prince’s vast vault, most recently a sprawling collection from “Diamonds and Pearls,” the artist’s final album to top the Billboard 200 during his lifetime.
