"Legal Battle over Dianne Feinstein's Family Fortune Escalates to Mediation"

A dispute over the late Richard Blum's estate, husband of Senator Dianne Feinstein, was aired in a San Francisco courtroom as attorneys representing the various parties clashed over the disbursement of assets, including valuable properties. Katherine Feinstein, the senator's daughter, argued that her mother is owed millions to cover medical bills, while the trustees overseeing Blum's estate claimed the estate is complex and needs more time for evaluation. The judge ordered private mediation and requested the trustees to provide a partial accounting of the estate. The mediation is scheduled to conclude by December 11, with a court hearing set for January 22.
