When Margaret Simpson died in 2003, she left behind some $80 million to $110 million in land and other assets that are now at the center of a dispute pitting two trustees-one of them a lawyer-against In Touch Ministries Inc., the religious broadcasting organization founded by Charles F. Stanley, senior pastor of First Baptist Church of Atlanta.

In Touch sued the trustees in DeKalb Superior Court alleging fraud, waste, mismanagement, self-dealing and breach of fiduciary duty, among other things. The trustees are Martha Almond, who owns a Jackson, Ga., real estate company, and her “purported co-trustee,” attorney Robert J.B. Petmecky of Petmecky Law Group.
