We can hope. Did you see the thread about Sharon giving an interview and taking questions from us orgers? Maybe it is a good sign, maybe???

Yes, I saw that and the warning given about being respectful.

Although her brother can be dissed to high heaven dont diss her.

This sounds like PR for the album, and Lonny will probably be sitting next to her typing out the answers.

The Minneapolis Star Tribune is also reporting on Judge Eide honoring Universal's request to cancel their deal with P's estate.

Unfortunatly, all of this is probaly true. Destroy the legacy of an incrediable artist and see if you can the fans to be okay with it. It is some sad times in the Purple Kingdom these days. But let us all hope the worst is behind us.

Has the org removed any posts critical of Sharon? If Prince were still alive and offered to answer questions from org members do you think the messaging from Mods would be different?

No, people have slammed him for years on this board and I never saw a mod do or say anything to stop it. A lot of what has been said about legal matters came from the court documents. Nothing should be removed and no one is going to be allowed to ask her any questions about anything controversial anyway so no need to censor any comments that were already posted.

Watch out you are talking about Sharon the world is going to stop spinning if anyone upsets her. LOL

Unfortunately, their actions have made them seem like money-grubbing, ungrateful relatives. Oh wait - we all have a couple of those in our families, don't we? Except their pay-offs will be millions more ...

. We all have messes after someone dies. My mother died last Saturday and we rushed to California. OMG. Like P, six surviving siblings and I'm glad not all were there. . Stupids want money from each other. . We FLED yesterday and decided to drive to Winnemucca instead of our usual stop in Reno. THE REVOLUTION WAS IN RENO LAST NIGHT. I sympathize with any family going through this mess. I can't imagine if my mother had been a self-made wealthy rock star. .

I am sorry for your loss and I hope your sibs can come together.

Someone did bring up one song and asked if she was the person referenced. I don't even want to say the name of it here.

The last I saw people were being respectful, but I look like a dweeb, but I'm cool with it because I WAS intially shocked. I think it's nice of her to put herself out there, its not like she isn't aware of what's going on, so more power to her. If she can handle it, I can handle it.

L. Londell McMillan, Prince's attorney and long-time business partner who now is a business advisor to three of Prince's half-sibling heirs and Charles Koppelman had structured the deal for the estate, earning themselves 10% commission. A lawyer for McMillan replied caustically in a counter-filing:

.

"While perhaps culturally interesting (though factually incorrect), Jay-Z's view of Mr. McMillan is not legally relevant, other than to note that Jay-Z himself is competing for rights to distribute Prince's music".

.

It was revealed that UMG were to manage Prince's NPG and unreleased recordings back in February. "We stand by our work".

.

The judge said he allowed Universal Music Group's attorneys to see the Warner Bros. But Warner Bros disputed that account, saying a contract it signed with Prince in 2014 guaranteed those rights for longer.

They haven't removed my 3 questions. I deliberately asked things she wouldn't know the answers to. She had not a clue what was going in P's later life. I don't believe she really cared that much at all. Lemme guess, she'll only answer questions about her 'feewings', and shed no light on any Prince specific matters.

On the other hand, according to Mayte's book, Prince and Tyka were quite close. So really it should be her taking questions.

Snips on the Estate thread?

The girls are appealing the Judge's Order naming the siblings heirs.

Also, UMG filed a Notice of Filing Order in regard to the Judge's Rescission of the contract to limit the time for appeal.

I certainly hope SNJ do not appeal the Judge's Rescission.

This will only tie up the Estate even longer.

Oh, the agony!!

Carver County District Court posted 3 more documents on the PRN Estate website today at http://www.mncourts.gov/I...lson.aspx.

.

Notice of Deficiency (latest)

Notification of Demand for Notice

Demand for Notice (earliest)

.

In the Demand for Notice, a woman named Shawnetta T. Graham claims that she is related to Prince and that he willed his estate to her. In the Notification of Demand for Notice, Mary P. Dalbec, Court Administrator, added Shawnetta T. Graham to the list of people to whom the Court must provide notice of proceedings of the Estate. The Notice of Definicency notifies Shawnetta Graham that she did not pay the required $307.00 filing fee.

.

This is really nothing significant because we already know who the heirs are and her claim is a bunch of nonsense.

.

EDITED FOR GRAMMAR: I wonder if the motivation behind some of these people filing notice of claims to the PRN Estate is so that they can have access to all of the information regarding the Estate, including redacted information to which the public does not have access. If not this explanation, then the only other explanations for the claims of people like Claire Elliott, Rodney Dixon, and Shawnetta Graham are mental health issues (namely, delusional thinking).
