Feud over songwriter’s estate ends in Ohio court
A long-running legal battle between the four children of a late country music songwriter and their evangelist aunt ended Monday when a judge approved placing the family’s share of his catalog into a trust fund for them.
The closing of the estate by a probate judge in Hamilton, north of Cincinnati, ended five years of wrangling between the heirs of late country songwriter Darrell “Wayne” Perry and his sister, Darlene Bishop, who became executor of his estate after he died of throat cancer in 2005 at the age of 55.
