Kouri Richins' Civil Lawsuits: The Fight Over Eric's Estate Explained | Case Brief

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/BCja5KnBz4k The complex civil lawsuits surrounding the estate of Eric Richins, husband of Kouri Richins, who is accused of his murder. These civil cases are stayed (on hold) as the Kouri Richins' criminal case and are being handled by the same judge, which is noted as unusual. A conviction could significantly alter her entitlements under the law (e.g., preventing her from inheriting). The criminal trial's outcome will also impact the ability to depose Kouri Richins for the civil cases. Eric Richins's sister, Katie Richins Benson, acting as the representative of Eric's estate and trustee of his living trust, has sued Kouri Richins, her mother, her brother, and Kouri Richins Reality (KRR) for various alleged improper financial actions. Kouri Richins has countersued the estate, arguing she is entitled to a portion of Eric's assets. She seeks declaratory judgment and quiet title, asking the court to declare that she owns 50% of the home, personal property, and business interest. She also seeks a money judgment against the estate for unjust enrichment. These actions also takes money away from her children's future.
