A new court filing challenges a petition submitted by “Jeanie,” arguing that it should be dismissed. The document says the petition, which held Jeanie’s siblings in contempt, has no merit. It also asks the court to reject the claim entirely. The filing argues that the siblings exercised voting rights explicitly granted to them as beneficiaries, and therefore those actions cannot constitute contempt or assistance in a breach of fiduciary duty. The filing frames the disagreement as hypocritical, stating there is “deep irony” in Jeanie alleging that “Joey and Janie” are putting their self-interests first. It says the petition is based on the idea that rights granted to the beneficiaries should be subordinated to Jeanie’s goal of remaining the controlling owner.
