Overview
- Kelton Donovan Schultz filed a petition on Monday, June 15 seeking to administer his twin Nicholas Brendon’s probate estate and attached a short handwritten note that reads, “My will. Sarah gets nothing. Kel gets everything. He can figure it out.”
- The filing asks the court to follow the terms of that handwritten note but the probate court has not yet ruled on the note’s legal effect.
- Brendon died in March at age 54 and an autopsy attributed his death to atherosclerotic and hypertensive cardiovascular disease with acute pneumonia and a prior myocardial infarction listed as contributing factors.
- Court documents list no spouse or children and name four potential beneficiaries: Kelton, Brendon’s parents Robert and Kathleen Schultz, and his ex-girlfriend Sarah Marker, while the parents declined to act as administrators and nominated Kelton instead.
- TMZ obtained and published the handwritten page and wider reporting says there is no current estimate of the estate’s value as the probate process unfolds and the court determines whether the note qualifies as a valid will.
