Overview
- A Philadelphia judge gave Daniel and Lisa Bohm 10 days on Monday to answer Alec Bohm’s request to return $528,618 that was moved from an LLC-linked brokerage account into their lawyer’s trust, where about $513,600 remains.
- Through new filings, the parents deny wrongdoing, say transfers were allowed under their roles as LLC managers, insist Bohm’s assets are intact, and press to move the dispute to a Florida arbitration they filed on March 30 through the American Arbitration Association.
- Bohm asked the court to halt that arbitration and keep the case in Philadelphia, a pivotal call because valid arbitration clauses usually shift fights out of open court and into private proceedings with limited review.
- Filed in March, Bohm’s lawsuit seeks at least $3 million and alleges his parents routed and controlled his earnings through multiple LLCs while blocking him from records tied to more than $6.5 million; the parents say signed operating agreements govern the entities.
- Bohm changed representation Monday by firing Scott Boras and rehiring Nick Chanock, a move that followed a sworn claim that his 2020 switch to Boras came under parental pressure, as the third baseman also works through a .153 start and an approaching free-agent year.
