Blood may not be thicker than water, at least in the case of two brothers have gone to court over their father’s prized Green Bay Packers tickets, according to the Green Bay Gazette. http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/article/20100411/GPG0101/4110587/1978
Peter Christman of Los Angeles alleges that his brother Michael kept all the proceeds after selling their late father Walter’s 13 mid-field tickets. The father, who died a year ago in April, had willed the tickets to Michael but said if the tickets were sold, the proceeds should be parceled out 55-45 between the brothers.
Peter has filed suit against his brother Michael of Van Buren, Ark., claiming he only got a small fraction of the money from the ticket sales, which should have reaped him thousands.
In his lawsuit filed in Brown County Court, Peter is seeking unspecified damages, legal fees and a judgment enforcing their father’s last wishes, according to the Green Bay Gazette.
There is a pretrial conference for the lawsuit scheduled for Oct. 7, with the trial set for Oct. 11 and 12.
