Dolly Parton's estate moves to dismiss lawsuit against nephew
The details of the resolution between Dolly Parton's estate and her nephew, Bryan Seaver, were not immediately known.
The estate of country music legend Dolly Parton has filed to dismiss a lawsuit against her nephew, Bryan Seaver, over allegations of violent threats and attempts to tarnish Parton's brand, according to the source. Seaver is reportedly relieved to have the matter resolved, allowing his family to grieve and preserve the integrity of Dolly's legacy, according to his attorneys.
Seaver, who manages the private security firm Squadron Augmented Protection Services, was previously responsible for announcing Parton's passing in August, but was subsequently fired by She's Alive, the company overseeing her estate and business affairs, in September. Following Seaver's termination, She's Alive's manager, Danny Nozell, sought a restraining order against both Seaver and the security firm.
