Jimmy Buffett’s Wife Says She Was Cut Out of $275 Million Inheritance

Nearly two years since the beloved "Margaritaville" legend, Jimmy Buffett, passed away, his widow, Jane, is embroiled in a legal battle that could cloud his lasting legacy of celebrating life. In documents submitted to the Los Angeles Superior Court, Jane is attempting to remove Rick Mozenter, co-trustee of Buffett’s estimated $275 million estate. She contends that their working relationship has soured, sparking significant concerns regarding fiscal oversight.Jane initially reached out to Mozenter about her anticipated income from the trust, but encountered a frustrating 16-month wait for clarity. By February 2025, projections indicated her annual earnings would fall below $2 million, with management fees decimating the amount.Through her legal actions, Jane aspires to appoint Daniel Neidich as co-trustee, striving to uphold Jimmy Buffett’s cherished legacy.
