Judge Rules That LaVerne Toney Will Remain as Executor of B.B. King’s Estate

Bb king 3I have previously discussed the bitter legal dispute over the estate of late blues musician B.B. King.  In a recent development Las Vegas District Court Judge Gloria Sturman has held that LaVerne Toney will continue with her role as executor of B.B. King’s estate.  The judge held that B.B. King’s 2007 Will made it clear that his long term manager would be the executor of his state.  The legal dispute between King’s daughters and LaVerne Toney is likely to continue into the future.
