A federal judge in San Antonio will hear arguments next month on whether the fight over control of Saints owner Tom Benson's family assets in Texas should be kept in federal court or be sent back to a San Antonio probate judge.
U.S. District Judge David Ezra set the hearing for May 21 at 10 a.m.
Renee Benson has asked Ezra to send the case back to Bexar County Probate Judge Tom Rickhoff. Benson is seeking to have her 87-year-old billionaire father permanently removed as trustee over a trust that holds San Antonio car dealerships, Lone Star Capital Bank and real estate.
