Judge sets July 3 date for O.J. Simpson estate claims
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A Las Vegas judge set a date to determine some of the claims made by the Goldman family against O.J. Simpson's estate.
Simpson, a football star and celebrity acquitted of the 1994 murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman, died in Las Vegas on April 10, 2024, at the age of 76. While Simpson was not found guilty of the deaths, he was found liable in a civil case and ordered to pay both families $33.5 million. The money was never paid.
After Simpson's death, multiple news agencies reported that Simpson's executor, attorney Malcom LaVergne, vowed he would fight any claims for settlement money from Goldman's family.

Over the years, the claim increased due to interest owed, more than $20 million, and three separate judgments that renewed the amount to more than $96 million. In July 2024, Goldman's father, Fred Goldman, filed a creditor's claim of $117 million against the estate.
The hearing is set for July 3 at the Clark County District Court. At that time, the judge could determine how much money the Goldmans would receive from the sale of some of the O.J. Simpson sports memorabilia, including a Heisman Trophy replica, his Lombardi Award Trophy, golf clubs, and his car.
