Lawyer fees - assuming we are talking what is paid to Branca's law firm- is irrelevant IMO. Why? Because there are multiple people - lawyers, paralegals, assistants etc in Branca's office that work on MJ related stuff and those monies are used to pay their salaries and the expenses etc. I don't see that as a money that goes into Branca's own pocket. And actually AP also mentions this by "The men had been paying fees for entertainment legal counsel provided by
members of Branca's firm". So that legal fees goes to other people, not Branca or McClain
Anyway the discussion (what bubs posted and what you asked) was about KJ's consultant fees versus what Executors were paid,
period. Her consultant fee is
more than what individual executors got
this year. I calculated that for you.
if you want to do other calculations go ahead. Did they get more than the kids? perhaps they did or not. I don't know if you just considered that allowance or included the other expenses or not. The previous posts wasn't about that and I did not write or do any calculations about that either. But we (or at least I) got you aren't happy that Buds has stated KJ got paid more money than Executors so now you are trying to change that to state but they got more than the kids. and you might be correct.
From your post, the executors is only about $230K short of the fourth.
and this statement is mathematically wrong. Katherine got $2.3 Million net for consulting
plus 1,386,548 in allowance plus there were other expenses (such as security, housing, housing staff, health insurance etc) that would be at least 1/4th spent for her benefit. Anyway expenses aside (simply bc I won't bother to divide that among beneficiaries) KJ got $3,386,548 in consultant fee + allowance where as Executors individually got 2,272,505 that's a difference of $1,414,043
Does that number include monies generated from deals the executors create?
That's the
any and all monies Executors get personally for 2012. I don't think I can get any more clearer than that. And the document is posted, if you don't believe me check for "co-executive" fees, everything is there. And if I missed anything, feel free to point that out.
