Court Filings Open Kyle Busch Probate and Name Samantha Busch Beneficiary

Files made public on June 16 begin estate administration, show an executor change, and indicate the family will not pursue a wrongful death claim.

Overview

  • The probate petition filed in Lincoln County on June 16 attaches Kyle Busch’s will and designates his tangible personal property to his wife, Samantha Busch.
  • Busch’s death certificate included in the filings lists hemorrhagic shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation as causes with sepsis and presumed bacterial pneumonia noted as contributing conditions.
  • The will named Clifton W. Homesley as executor but court papers show he renounced that role and John S. Fuller has filed to qualify as executor of the estate.
  • Documents signed by Fuller state there is no potential wrongful death claim under North Carolina law and that the family does not intend to sue over Busch’s death.
  • Probate is at an early stage with no inventory, appraisal, or formal estate valuation on file while media reports list significant assets and the family continues public mourning and tributes including RCR reserving the No. 8 car for son Brexton.
