Martin Luther King Jr.’s children continue to battle over his Nobel Peace Prize and traveling Bible, pitting his two sons against his daughter. If the parties do not reach a settlement, the case will most likely go to trial. King’s two sons are in control of his estate and want the two items sold; however, his daughter is opposing the sale, arguing that the items do not belong in the estate. A lawyer for the estate maintains that the sell of the items is essential to the estate’s viability. Former President Jimmy Carter was even helping out as a mediator to help resolve their dispute, one of many in recent years.
