BROWN'S WILL STILL OMITS PARTNER AND YOUNG SON
LATEST: JAMES BROWN's partner TOMI RAE HYNIE and five-year-old child were not named as beneficiaries in his will filed on Thursday (18JAN07) in Georgia.
The document, which was filed in Aiken County, names six children and calls for many household possessions to be divided among them.
The bequest was signed 10 months before the birth of Brown's five-year-old son.
The singer intentionally failed to provide for "any other relatives or persons whether claiming, or to claim, to be an heir of mine or not."
Brown died of heart failure in an Atlanta hospital on Christmas morning (25DEC06) at the age of 73.
According to Brown's attorney and trustee BUDDY DALLAS, most of the singer's larger assets are in an irrevocable trust separate from his will.
Brown's body remains sealed in a gold casket in a temperature controlled room at this home awaiting burial.
Hynie's attorney, ROBERT ROSEN, said on Wednesday (17JAN07) he will sue and ask a court to rule Hynie was legally married Brown and is entitled to half his estate.
