Overview
- Kevin and Derrick Boseman filed a petition in Los Angeles on July 17 asking the court to remove Taylor Simone Ledward as administrator of Chadwick Boseman’s estate.
- The brothers say Ledward failed to follow a 2022 court order to distribute the estate and has not provided a full accounting of residuals, royalties and other income.
- The filing alleges additional unaccounted assets including SAG‑AFTRA payments and a previously undisclosed bank account that the brothers say total nearly $3 million.
- They ask the court to hold Ledward in contempt, compel a complete accounting within 30 days, appoint attorney and forensic accountant Jason Rubin, and bar new contracts using Boseman’s name without family consent.
- A hearing is scheduled for Sept. 29 and Ledward has not publicly responded to the petition, which frames the dispute as both a financial fight over unpaid assets and a clash over control of Boseman’s image and legacy.
