Martin Luther King, Jr. Died Intestate

Mlk1

Today we celebrate the life of Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the main leaders of the American Civil Rights Movement.

Dr. King devoted all of his income and talent to the movement.  He died intestate, leaving less than $30,000 in his estate.  Some of that money was already earmarked for the movement.

This comes from the Wills, Trusts & Estates Prof Blog.
