Prince's death in 2016 sparked a legal battle over control of his $156M estate, which took years to resolve and has never fully ended. The star, known for his meticulous attention to detail on his image, music, and intellectual property, died without a will. The court settled on his siblings, including sister Tyka Nelson, five half-siblings, and a bank, Comerica Bank & Trust, as a court-appointed administrator. Prince advisors L. Londell McMillan and Charles Spicer were granted control of an undisclosed stake of the estate. The case finally ended in 2022 when the heirs reached a deal with the Internal Revenue Service to set a final tax valuation of $156 million. However, the legal battles continued throughout the years.
