Leonard Cohen’s children, Lorca and Adam Cohen, have filed a lawsuit accusing his longtime impresario and trustee of his estate, Robert Kory, and his legal representatives of infringement, according to an exclusive news from the American magazine. variety.
The petition cites a deposition in which Robert Kory’s former attorney admits to removing, after the singer’s death in 2016, a page from Leonard Cohen’s signed trust and replacing it with one stating that the impresario is the principal trustee, which constitutes a crime.
Lorca and Adam Cohen notably want to take over the trust and get back the money Robert Kory earned while acting as trustee.
A trial is scheduled for March 29 in Los Angeles.
