Prince’s long and messy estate battle is finally coming to an end! RadarOnline.com has learned that a Minnesota court has officially determined a set of heirs who might get a cut of his millions.
Court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com list the heirs as such: his half-brothers, Omarr Baker, Alfred Jackson and John Nelson; his half-sisters, Sharon Nelson, and Corrine Nelson; and his full sister Tyka Nelson.
The documents do, however, leave open the possibility for more heirs to come forward within a year's time, after that it’s a closed case for any more potential heirs to come forward.
The order from the court states that there shall be no distribution of assets from the estate to the heirs without a formal order from the court. The estate is currently being handled by an appointed trust Comerica Bank Trust which was designated by the First Judicial District Court Of Carver County.
