From the Philadelphia Inquirer:

Beasley heirs dispute the lawyer's estate

In death as in life, feisty lawyer James E. Beasley Sr. has stirred a courthouse fracas.

The renowned malpractice and libel lawyer died in 2004, leaving an estate valued at $59 million, including two vintage P-51 fighter planes. He also left behind five children from two marriages, and bequeathed each child a slice of his fortune with one caveat: Any heir who challenged the will in court would be disinherited.

Yet nearly four years later, Beasley's children are waging a legal battle in Montgomery County Orphans' Court over control of the estate.

I checked with the fam. Turns out he isn't my long lost uncle. But he is one hell of a dresser.
