straight out to Nicole Parton.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
For the latest Nancy. Nearly three decades after the civil
judgment against O. J. Simpson, his estate is finally taking
steps to pay Fred Goldman, father of Ron Goldman, who
was killed alongside Nicole Brown Simpson in nineteen ninety four.
According to TMZ, Malcolm Laverne, the executor of Simpson's estate,

(00:26):
has accepted Goldman's creditor claim for nearly fifty eight million dollars.
That figure includes the original thirty three point five million
dollar judgment from nineteen ninety seven, plus thirty years of interest.
Simpson was acquitted of murder in what became known as
the Trial of the Century, but later found liable in

(00:47):
civil court. Most of that judgment went unpaid during Simpson's lifetime.
He died in April twenty twenty four at the age
of seventy six. Laverne says the estate will pay what
is can by auctioning Simpson's possessions. Though some items have
been stolen. He's working with attorneys to recover those and
plans to ask the court to approve an administrative fee

(01:10):
for Goldman, who's helped manage a state affairs. Other creditor claims,
most have been rejected. The estate will prioritize Goldman and
the Irs, which is owed federal taxes. A separate claim
from California over six hundred thousand dollars will require legal
action if the state wants to collect. This marks a

(01:32):
major reversal for Laverne, who initially vowed not to pay
the Goldman family. Now, he says the estate will settle
the judgment as much as possible. Fred Goldman had long
said pursuing Simpson in civil court was the only way
to seek justice for his son Nicole.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Thank you more private justice.
