As Dianne Feinstein, 90, struggles to function in the Senate, a dispute within her family over control of her late husband’s estate is another difficult chapter at the end of a long career. For an ailing Feinstein, a fight over the family fortune:
For years, Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California has been engaged in a long and painful public drama about her health and ability to do her job, as she winds down a storied career as a lawmaker and a former mayor of San Francisco.
Raised in affluence, Feinstein has long been among the wealthiest members of Congress. She was rich in her own right in 1980 when she married Blum. After she entered the Senate, she placed securities into a blind trust that is valued at between $5 million and $25 million, according to her most recent financial disclosure required of lawmakers.
The two lawsuits were filed by Katherine Feinstein, 66, Feinstein’s only child, who has power of attorney over her mother’s legal affairs. The first lawsuit, over the beach house, says the property is in disrepair, that Dianne Feinstein no longer wishes to use it, and that she wants to sell it this summer or fall.
In response, a Bay Area lawyer representing the two trustees — Michael R. Klein, a longtime lawyer for Blum, and Marc T. Scholvinck, who was chief financial officer of Blum’s private equity firm — said the two had never refused to pay any money to Feinstein. The lawyer, Steven P. Braccini, also suggested that Katherine Feinstein, a former Superior Court judge in San Francisco who is now on the city’s fire commission, was acting out of personal interests and not out of those of her mother.
