Mickey Rooney’s Children Drop Objections To Will

I have previously discussed the dispute over the will of late actor Mickey Rooney.  On Thursday, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge David Cowan accepted Mickey Rooney’s will after several of the actor’s children dropped their objections to the document.  The Court appointed attorney Michael Augustine to serve as the estate’s administrator.  Mickey Rooney passed away in April 2014 at the age of 93.  His children contested the actor’s will when he signed the document just weeks before his death.  Before his death Mickey Rooney spoke out against elder abuse; the actor had previously lost most of his fortune after being a victim of elder abuse and financial mismanagement from one of his stepsons.
