In 1986 he was ordered to pay fees of $268,299 and a judge said his “intentional and prolonged non-compliance with the court’s reasonable orders” had cost his sisters.

That's the type of man he is, lets hope and I do genuinly mean it, that no such nonsense occurs when he dies.
At the very least, you could have provided a link to the article in question, so we can judge not only the authenticity, but the credibility too.

Considering the bloke has had 2 strokes, I think we can forgive for his lack of attendance, don't you?

And this information comes from where? Or is this a 'gut' feeling?

Roman is a multi billionaire for a good reason, he's a shrewd business man, to suggest he won't get a return on his investment is dillusional on your part.
