Pickler Kellie‘S. An ongoing legal battle with her late husband Kyle Jacobs‘Parents could become “complicated,” according to a legal expert.
“Probation causes can be very difficult for all participants. What should otherwise be family matters are published in a court of law,” attorney and estate planner of Tennessee Michael Crowderhas no connection to the case, which is said only US Weekly. “Conflict can be complicated by the pain, hurt and sometimes guilt or anger the family experiences for losing a loved one.”
Jacobs died by suicide In February 2023 at the age of 49. Nearly a year later, the parents of Jacobs, Reed and Sharon, allegedly asked for Pickler, 38, for many of Jacobs’ personal property. (Reed and Sharon are Jacobs Estate Co -Chinese.)
Meanwhile, Pickler claimed she had none of the items – Jacobs’ collection, watch, jewelry, musical instruments and more – in her possession. She filed court documents in 2024, claiming that Reed and Sharon also removed some items from her home without her knowledge or consent. Reed and Sharon disagreed with Pickler’s accusations in legal response in November 2024, claiming to have a “specific invitation” to collect Jacobs property.
A year after Kellie Pickler’s husband Kyle Jacobs died by suicide, the country’s star takes part in a legal battle with his parents. “A dispute has arisen among the parties about the specific possession of personal property allegedly (Kyle) before his death,” filed court documents in August 2024 and later obtained by reading US Weekly. Pickler (…)
“The dispute in this case includes ownership and sharing of tangible personal property,” Crowder explained Us. “Some of the most controversial cases I have treated in my career include sharing an individual’s property – what we lawyers call ‘tangible personal property,’ such as furniture, jewelry, guns, musical instruments, etc. These disputes are most often fired not by the monetary value of the items, but by their sentimental value, but by their sentimental value.”
According to Crowder, such disputes can often become “proxy wars” for family members to “work out long -standing issues” which began long before the death of an individual.
“One of the threshold issues in this case appears to be whether some tangible personal property items were owned by Ms Pickler or her husband,” said Crowder. “Ms Pickler has claimed that the Jacobses entered her and her husband’s home and took possession of some items. If those items were, in fact, the property of Ms Pickler, the jacobses had no authority to take possession of them and act inappropriately in doing so.”
Crowder, however, acknowledged that Reed and Sharon were “authorized under Tennessee law” to take possession of the tangible personal properties of Jacobs as they are his estate administrators.
“Determining ownership of such properties can be complicated. It may include tracking the source of the money used to purchase the items,” added Crowder to Us. “For example, did the money came from Ms. Pickler’s employment, or from her husband’s men? In addition, a spouse can enter into contracts about the ownership of their property, often through wooden or post -name agreements.”
Pickler and Jacobs signed woodup when they married in 2011, which Reed and Sharon have been used as a reason why the singer’s legal request should not be given.
Kellie Pickler and her husband Kyle Jacobs bonded over their musical backgrounds – but chose to take their time before being hit. Alum American Idol met with her prospective husband in the mid-2000s through fellow-friend. While playing us weekly “new -born game” in December 2015, they both remembered the Jacobs pick up line like, “Hi, (…)
“The court will probably need to interpret that contract to decide what the parties agreed to in terms of ownership,” said Crowder. “In so far as the court decides that Ms. Pickler’s husband owns some or all of the property, the Jacobses have the right to collect that property as the estate administrators. Some or all of that property could be sold when administering the estate, if necessary, to pay debt and expenses.”
Once any debts and expenses are paid, it is up to an administrator to distribute the remaining property to the heirs of the estate. As Pickler and Jacobs did not have children, Tennessee’s law usually allocates the whole estate to the person’s spouse.
“Under the default rules, Ms Pickler would be entitled to all her husband’s property after the estate was administered by the Jacobses. However, a married right to inherit by contract can be modified,” said Crowder Us. “Many people believe that a wooden agreement addresses property division in divorce only, but can also address the rights of the spouse to each other’s estate after death. In addition, it is possible for a deceased person’s family to reach an agreement among each other about sharing property.”
Janet Mayer/Startraksphoto.com Kellie Pickler and the parents of her late husband Kyle Jacobs have found themselves immersed in legal disagreement over Jacobs’ property. Both sides go to court after Pickler, 38, filed a petition against Reed and Sharon Jacobs, the Kyle Estate Co -Cheneral, according to Intouch, who was first to report (…)
Many of the details of the legal battle are set under a seal for better privacy. Earlier this month, Reed and Sharon also Subpoena filing To Harpeth’s Memorial Gardens Funeral and Cremation Center for more details on the Jacobs funeral service and cremation plans. Harpeth is alleged to have refused to comply with the request, but has not filed an objection.
“It is difficult to estimate the intentions of the Jacobs behind the subpoena to the funeral home,” said Crowder Us. “This is theoretical, but they may be hoping to reveal information that helps them find some property in their son.”
