...says their attorney, Bob Landon, because until the sisters can agree on how Bebe's money is to be spent, it stays tied up in probate. Landon says Tricia is using this dispute "as a back door to try once again to get family control of the library." The suit tried--and failed--to oust Tricia from the board. Tricia's lawyer, Tom Malcolm, says Taylor's suit has "tarnished forever the image of a close, wholesome relationship and replaced it with a story of feuding and recrimination." Ken Khachigian, a library board member and former Nixon adviser, calls Taylor...

He added that when he arrived back at house the next day it was in an uproar with...
