A Delaware judge has ruled that Charles Spicer Jr. and L. Londell McMillan, Prince’s former business advisors, cannot legally be removed from his estate by Prince’s heirs. This is a major ruling in the ongoing estate lawsuit for McMillan and Spicer. (via pitchfork.com)

When Prince died of an accidental fentanyl overdose in 2016, his six siblings inherited equal shares in his estate, since he did not leave a will behind. Three of his siblings co-founded his estate management company, Prince Legacy LLC, of which McMillan and Spicer are the current managers. However, Prince’s half-sisters Sharon and Norrine Nelson, later regretted this decision and allegedly attempted to oust McMillan and Spicer from the company, along with Prince’s niece and nephew Breanna and Allen Nelson.

Earlier this month, a judge refused the dismissal of the case. Chancellor Kathaleen St. Jude McCormick stated that the court would not move forward with the request to amend the original LLC agreement because the terms within the agreement were “unambiguous and [McMillan and Spicer]’s interpretation is the only reasonable one.” (via pitchfork.com)

Additionally, the ruling sets another protection for McMillan and Spicer. According to pitchfork.com, the most recent ruling states that “those four family members could not amend the LLC agreement to remove McMillan and Spicer because it breaks the terms of the agreement.”

Outside of the lawsuit regarding Prince‘s estate, a rare song of his was released back in April on all streaming platforms, titled “United States of Division.” The song is a bit more on the political side, and it encourages listeners to end the fighting amongst us and come together in peace and love.
