Boseman Brothers Seek Widow Removal as Estate Administrator
Chadwick Boseman’s brothers Derrick and Kevin are suing to remove his widow Taylor Ledward Boseman as estate administrator, arguing she mismanages assets and has not distributed funds since a 2022 court order granted her control. They say more than $3 million in cash and assets, including royalties, residuals, IP rights, investments, and unclaimed property, remains undistributed and that Ledward exercises unilateral control, withholding information and thwarting family participation. The filing seeks a full accounting within 30 days, enforcement of the 2022 distribution order, and the appointment of a forensic accountant (Jason Rubin) to oversee the estate. The brothers claim Ledward has failed to transfer a long-term care policy to Boseman’s mother and has blocked business opportunities tied to the actor’s name and likeness, causing emotional distress to the parents. The family asserts they are owed a half-share for Ledward and a quarter each for Boseman’s parents, and they request oversight of future deals involving Boseman’s name, image, and IP. Responding coverage notes Ledward has focused on honoring Boseman’s legacy, while legal filings emphasize transparency and closure for the family.
