It’s already sophisticated sufficient to be combating over his late mom’s belongings as a younger grownup, however to make issues worse, on this week’s newest submitting Homer referred to as out James for reportedly attempting to govern him and limiting his potential to speak with Atlas. Not the information you wish to hear for a household going through such large grief. But there could also be extra to the story!
On Thursday, James clapped again at Homer’s authorized submitting to cease the court docket from making him the administrator. And he’s now blaming the so-called rift all on Homer! Oof.
According to a brand new authorized submitting obtained by ET on Friday, James requested a Los Angeles court docket on Thursday to nominate himself because the executor of Anne’s property or to nominate a impartial third get together personal skilled fiduciary. Why does he assume he deserves the highly-sought after administrator place? Well, he claims Anne despatched him an electronic mail about her will after they had been courting again in 2011 — making her needs VERY clear. In the court docket docs, James said Anne wrote him an electronic mail on January 25, 2011, with the topic “WILL.” In the e-mail, she wrote:
“In case I die tomorrow and anyone asks. My wishes are that all of my assets go to the control of Mr. James Tupper to be used to raise my children and then given to the children. They will be divided equally among our children, currently Homer Heche Laffoon and Atlas Heche Tupper, and their portion given to each when they are the age of 25.”
James and Anne dated for greater than a decade, ending in 2018. They first met on the set of Men in Trees in 2006. While the couple was damaged up on the time of the Volcano alum’s demise, James nonetheless believes he has a proper to object to Homer’s request because the mum or dad of the minor property inheritor.
The Big Little Lies star additionally has some severe trigger for concern relating to Homer!

James went on to assert Homer modified the locks on Anne’s residence after her demise, refusing to let Atlas in to gather his private belongings. Jeez. The Requin lead additionally argued it was Homer who hasn’t been responding to any correspondence from his youthful brother — and he was supposedly a no-show after reportedly agreeing to attend grief counseling collectively and meet James and Atlas at a restaurant. Hmm.
Because of the younger man’s uncommon conduct as of late, James doesn’t assume it’s in his son’s greatest curiosity for Homer to be operating the property, saying:
“It concerns objector that in light of this behavior, Homer will not act in his brother’s best interest. Objector Tupper helped raise these boys from a very early age, and cares deeply for their well-being. It is his desire that they achieve a fair and good result from these proceedings, which is his sole purpose in filing these objections.”
Similarly, James doesn’t assume it’s acceptable for the court docket to grant the 20-year-old’s request since he’s unemployed and due to this fact wouldn’t be capable of pay the mandatory bond (except it was made void, which Homer requested in his submitting). If you didn’t know, Administrator and Executor bonds (additionally referred to as Probate Bonds) are required within the state except in any other case famous by the court docket. They typically assure that every one the property money owed will probably be glad and that the remaining belongings will probably be correctly distributed to the suitable heirs. The 57-year-old added:
“The administrator role requires someone with more experience and sophistication, as the estate assets require management and collection by someone with the required expertise. Homer’s lack of assets and income also means he will be unable to obtain a bond, and in fact his petition asks that no bond be posted, which is unacceptable to Objector.”
What does the court docket take into consideration all this?? They’ve already sided with Homer! According to the boy’s lawyer, Bryan Phipps to TMZ on Thursday night, it feels like Anne’s oldest has already been made particular administrator. He shared:
“The court appointing Homer special administrator today supports that decision.”
Wow! Homer additionally shared a remark about James’ submitting, this time taking the excessive highway, saying:
“We prefer to see the estate administration play out in court and not in the media, as our legal documents speak for themselves.”
This is basically getting messy! A listening to has been scheduled for October 11. Reactions??
