The New York Post reports:

Feinstein's husband, Richard Blum, was the former president of equity investment management fund Blum Capital. He died in February of last year with a net worth reportedly close to $1 billion.

Steven Braccini, a lawyer representing Klein and Scholvinck blasted the lawsuit and contended that Feinstein's daughter is to blame.

“The trustees have acted ethically and appropriately at all times; the same cannot be said for Katherine Feinstein. This filing is unconscionable,” Braccini said in a statement obtained by The Post.

“The trustees have always respected Senator Feinstein and always will. But this has nothing to do with her needs and everything to do with her daughter's avarice.”

On July 23, 2023, Feinstein granted Katherine the authority to make legal decisions on civil-related matters on her behalf. A former San Francisco County Superior Court judge, Katherine serves as fire commissioner for the people of San Francisco.
