A probate master has ordered the estate of Glen Campbell to produce the unredacted billing records submitted by Greenberg Traurig LLC for work done on intellectual property and related probate matters.
In a one-page ruling Probate Master Elizabeth Johnson wrote that the unredacted billing records were required before the overall $211,533 fee request could be thoroughly reviewed.
"Accordingly the estate shall submit the unredacted invoices of Greenberg Traurig LLC within 30 days for in-camera review by this court," the order states.
Court records submitted in-camera are not publicly disclosed.
The highly redacted billing statements were submitted to the Davidson Probate Court late last year. The billing statements show the attorney overseeing work for the estate raised his houly fee to $1,050.
Johnson's order comes after one of Campbell's children dropped her challenge to the estate's legal fees.
Debbie Campbell Cloyd withdrew her objections just before a scheduled hearing in Johnson's court room.
In withdrawing the objection Campbell Cloyd disclosed the Campbell Family Trust had agreed to pay her a bequest from the late singer.
Prior court filings indicate the bequest was for $250,000.
In additiion to ordering the estate to submit the unedited billing records, Johnson referred the case back to Probate Judge David "Randy" Kennedy.
Campbell died in 2017 following a lengthy battle with Alzheimer's disease.
