Anne Heche’s son files for control of her estate after she dies without leaving a will – National

Actress Anne Heche died leaving no will, and her 20-year-old son filed a lawsuit in court to take control of her estate.

Homer Laffoon, Heche’s son with ex-husband Coleman Laffoon, filed a petition in Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday asking him to be allowed to administer his mother’s estate.

The petition lists 13-year-old Homer Laffoon and Atlas Tupper, Heche’s son with former partner James Tupper, as her sole heirs.

The document states that the value of Heche’s estate is unknown. That is often the case for such early records, before anyone has the legal authority to value the deceased’s estate.

Homer Laffoon also filed a request for someone to be appointed to represent his brother’s interests in court.
