AceShowbiz - Robin Williams' wife and children get more time to settle dispute over some of the late actor's personal items. San Francisco Superior Court Judge Andrew Cheng gave them time until July 29 to resolve the issues.
The settlement was supposed to be reached on Monday, June 1. However, the actor's widow, Susan Williams, and three children from the actor's previous marriage were still in disagreement about splitting some personal items. Meredith Bushnell, attorney for Williams' children from previous marriages, said there were approximately 300 personal items, including clothing, books, bicycles, entertainment awards and some artwork, which were still in dispute after the two sides met with a mediator at a judge's suggestion.
Robin hung himself in August 2014 in the Marin County home he shared with Susan. He left instructions that she would receive enough money to keep it up through her lifetime. On the other hand, the actor left most of his estate, worth around $100 million, to his three children, including the proceeds from the sale of a Napa County home and property.
Susan Williams wants to keep items such as her husband's slippers, T-shirts and some boxer shorts as they contain memory of her late husband. However, his children claimed that the belongings including clothing, watches, photos taken prior to his marriage to Susan Williams, and entertainment awards belonged to them.
Currently, lawyers are trying to determine how much money Susan Williams will need to maintain her lifetime, as instructed by Robin.
