Ryne Sandberg's children sue widow over alleged trust mishandling

Ryne Sandberg's children, Justin and Lindsey Sandberg, have filed a lawsuit against their stepmother, Margaret Sandberg, alleging improper management of a trust following the baseball legend's death last July. The lawsuit claims that Margaret tried to usurp control over the trust, which governs Sandberg's name, image, and likeness rights, against his expressed wishes. The siblings contend that their father left clear instructions for equal co-management of the trust among all family members, and that attempts to amend the trust shortly before his death were illegitimate due to his medical condition. A court hearing is scheduled for July 31 to address the dispute.
