Dolly Parton’s manager drops lawsuit against nephew
The lawsuit filed in September accused the late musician's nephew of attempting to extort money from her estate.
According to US media reports, Dolly Parton's manager has dropped a civil lawsuit he filed against the singer's nephew. The lawsuit, filed in September, accused Bryan Seaver of attempting to extort money from Parton's estate. The estate includes Dolly Parton's amusement park, hotel and soon-to-be-opened museum. Seaver, who had provided security for Parton for years, was abruptly fired and allegedly sent threatening messages to Parton's family.
A judge had issued a temporary restraining order against Seaver, which was voluntarily dismissed on Thursday in a Nashville court. Parton, a country music legend, rose from poverty to become a rhinestone-studded icon with hits like "Jolene" and "I Will Always Love You." She also starred in films and donated millions to charity, building a vast business empire that includes Dollywood theme park, cosmetics, pet apparel, baking mixes and a truck stop.
