Simpson’s will was filed Friday in a Clark County court in Nevada, naming his longtime lawyer, Malcolm LaVergne, as the executor. The document shows Simpson’s property was placed into a trust that was created this year.

LaVergne told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the entirety of Simpson’s estate has not been tallied. Under Nevada law, an estate must go through the courts if its assets exceed $20,000.

Simpson died Wednesday without having paid the lion’s share of the civil judgment that was awarded in 1997 after jurors found him liable. With his assets set to go through the court probate process, the Goldman and Brown families could be in line to get paid a piece of whatever Simpson left behind.

LaVergne, who had represented Simpson since 2009, said he specifically didn’t want the Goldman family seeing any money from Simpson’s estate.

“It’s my hope that the Goldmans get zero, nothing,” he told the Review-Journal. “Them specifically. And I will do everything in my capacity as the executor or personal representative to try and ensure that they get nothing.”

    I think there was more than enough evidence for Simpson to serve time, but on the other hand when OJ Simpson published “IF I DID IT” in order to pay these families they really did him dirty by hiding the IF.

    And where did all of that money from the publishing rights go to? Just a bunch of goons fighting over money at this point.

      He did it and everyone knew it. He knew that everyone knew it too which is why he agreed to the “if” being hidden. The only people that were done dirty here was who he killed and the family and friends of who he killed.
