Why Is Nick Reiner's Bigger Family Fortune Already Frozen?

Buried in the Nick Reiner trust fund fight is a detail that tells you how the people who actually control the Reiner money see this case: the much larger family trusts — where Nick is reportedly a full and equal beneficiary alongside his siblings — have already been frozen until the criminal case is over. Locked. Untouchable. So why is the smaller trust, the one his parents built just for him, the one he can still fight over?

Eric Faddis — former felony prosecutor, veteran defense attorney, and our guide through both sides of fights like this — joins us live to answer that question and every one that follows from it.

He breaks down the legal distinction that lets one pot of Reiner money sit frozen while another is in open contest, and what that split reveals about how trustees are hedging against California's slayer statute — the rule that a killing can't pay. He examines the departing trustee's stated reason for withholding funds, Nick's "capacity to make sound decisions," against the defense's blunt rebuttal that no court has ever declared him incompetent. He walks through whether Jake and Romy Reiner can ask a judge to freeze this trust too until the murder trial ends — and whether a judge would actually do it.

Then we go where this is really headed: incoming trustee Jodi Montgomery, the fiduciary who once served as Britney Spears' conservator, has already asked to meet Nick in custody. Faddis decodes what that meeting is for, what's at stake in it for both sides, and his prediction for where this money sits six months from now.

It's live, so your questions drive the second half. Bring them.
