Hearing in Thomas Kinkade Case Reset
A probate court hearing between the attorneys for the Thomas Kinkade estate and the late painter’s girlfriend has been continued until December 24. The Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cain originally set the hearing for December 3.
The hearing will attempt to sort out who gets to keep personal property contained in the home. The Kinkade estate currently does not have access to the home in question. Judge Cain has asked both parties to submit a list of the items for possible removal. The painter’s holographic handwritten wills are still unresolved, and Judge Can is being asked to rule on Kinkade’s wills or codicils.
