They accuse the once-respected L.A. lawyer of using the money to fund his lavish lifestyle with Jayne.

The attorney representing the orphans and widows believed Jayne was in possession of assets they could seize. The firm said, “Edelson does not seek to obtain assets that ever belonged to estate. Instead, it seeks its own, traceable assets that were embezzled by Tom and potentially given to Erika. The automatic stay provides no protection to a third party in this circumstance.”

The trustee believes the money Girardi used could potentially have been embezzled. In court docs, she says if the law firm is allowed to go after Jayne it would “disrupt” their investigation. She is pleading with the judge to shut down the request arguing her investigation into Jayne is still in the beginning stages.
