14 April 2024<\/time>\n<\/p>\nThe executor of O.J. Simpson’s will plans to fight any payments to the families of his late ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
OJ Simpson died last week<\/p>\n
\nThe former footballer – who died of cancer on Wednesday (10.04.24) aged 76 – was found not guilty of the pair’s murders in 1995 but two years later, a separate civil trial jury found him liable for their deaths and he was ordered to pay out $33.5 million to their families, and the late ‘Naked Gun’ star’s attorney, Malcolm LaVergne has vowed to “do everything in [his] capacity” to keep money out of heir hands.<\/p>\n
\nMalcolm told the Las Vegas Review-Journal: “It’s my hope that the Goldmans get zero, nothing. Them specifically. And I will do everything in my capacity as the executor or personal representative to try and ensure that they get nothing.”<\/p>\n
\nThe lawyer, who had worked with O.J. since 2009, said he was “flummoxed” to be named the executor of the former Buffalo Bills player’s estate and didn’t know its current value.<\/p>\n
\nHe said: \u201cI am flummoxed as to why he would name me as the personal representative or the executor, but he did. And it\u2019s something I\u2019m going to take very seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nAccording to documents obtained by the outlet, O.J. wanted his last wishes to be administered \u201cwithout litigation or dispute of any kind” and any beneficiary, heir or person who \u201csought to establish a claim on the will\u201d to dispute it would receive one dollar \u201cand no more in lieu of any claimed interest\u201d in the will or its assets.<\/p>\n
\nO.J. had reportedly only paid $123,000 of the $33.4 million balance of the compensation payments, with insiders previously claimed the controversial sportsman had ran a substantial system of cash-only business ventures.<\/p>\n
\nA source told the New York Post newspaper’s Page Six column: \u201cHe would sign anything except anything that had to do with the trial or murder. The stipulation was always that he had to be paid in cash.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nAnother insider added: “With being paid everything in cash, there was no way to document how much money he had access to.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nAnd an attorney for Ron’s family has vowed to fight for what they are owed.<\/p>\n
\nLawyer David Cook told the Daily Mail: \u201cHe died without penance. We don\u2019t know what he has, where it is or who is in control.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe will pick up where we are and keep going with it.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIs there money to be had? Hopefully. Do I know exactly what it is? No, but we\u2019ll figure that out soon.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cRon Goldman is gone, murdered. We have to fight on for him.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe\u2019ve had this problem for a long, long time. It could be in a trust, it could be probate. It could be all gone.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
