One of Dallas’ wealthiest families has frustrated federal courts with their bitter trust fund dispute for nearly a decade. Now the Texas Supreme Court wants to jump in with a $7.2 million attorney fee dispute.
Hunt v. Hill involves a fight between the heirs of the Hunt family’s oil fortune. The case was settled in a U.S. District Court in Dallas in 2010 but continues to live on in numerous federal appeals over the distribution of trust funds and fee disputes among family members and their attorneys.
