A legal dispute has emerged over the estate of late actor Chadwick Boseman, with his brothers asking a court to remove his widow, Taylor Simone Ledward Boseman, as the estate's administrator.

What the court filing alleges

According to court documents obtained by ET, Chadwick's brothers, Derrick Boseman and Kevin Boseman, allege that:

• Taylor Simone Ledward Boseman has mismanaged the estate.

• Estate assets have not been fully distributed nearly four years after administration began.

• The family has not received complete information regarding residual income and more than $3 million in bank assets.

They are requesting:

• A full accounting of the estate's finances.

• The appointment of a new estate administrator.

Background

Chadwick Boseman died in 2020 at the age of 43 following a private battle with colon cancer.

Because he died without a will, his estate has been administered through probate under California law.

Legal status

The allegations contained in the filing represent the brothers' claims and have not been proven in court. Taylor Simone Ledward Boseman will have the opportunity to respond through the legal process, and a judge will ultimately determine whether any changes to the estate's administration are warranted.

Bottom line

Chadwick Boseman's brothers have asked a court to remove his widow as administrator of his estate, alleging financial mismanagement and a lack of transparency. The dispute is now before the probate court, where the claims will be evaluated.
