Robert Schimmel’s daughter sues stepmother over inheritance

Late comic Robert Schimmel’s widow has been sued by his daughter over claims she failed to hand over inheritance money. The funnyman, who was a regular on Howard Stern’s radio show, died in a car crash in Phoenix, Arizona in 2010. He was aged 60.
Now his daughter Jessica Katz has issued a lawsuit against his widow Melissa, who Schimmel had been divorcing at the time of his death. It accuses her of failing to pay Katz and another sibling the money promised to them, according to TMZ.com.
It is stated they are seeking $25,000 (£15,600) each.
A lawyer dealing with Schimmel’s estate has told TMZ.com they are dealing with his debts before they make payouts to his heirs.
The comic had six children. Two, daughter Aliyah and son Jacob, were involved in the car accident which claimed his life.
