Jury seated in trial over singer Aretha Franklin's handwritten wills

dispute over Aretha Franklin's estate

The stipulation was made by attorneys for Franklin's sons before a jury was seated in Oakland County Probate Court.. But five years later, the music superstar's estate remains unsettled. A son, Ted White II, believes a 2010 handwritten will should mainly control the estate, but two other sons, Kecalf Franklin and Edward Franklin, are in favor of a 2014 document., months after Franklin died. The 2014 document was under cushions at Franklin's home in suburban Detroit.

There are differences between the documents, though they both appear to indicate the sons would share income from music and copyrights, which seems to make that issue less contentious than a few others.
