Elijah Blue Allman Indicted in New Hampshire Felony Criminal Mischief Case

Allman has been held at a locked psychiatric hospital since March 1 following his arrest, after prior issues including a February incident at St. Paul’s School.

Britney Spears stunned the world at the 2001 MTV VMAs with a jungle-goddess look, a 7-foot albino python draped over her shoulders, and a tiger on stage, a risk-taking performance that, aided by designers Kurt Swanson and Bart Mueller and choreographers Wade Robson and Brian Friedman, helped define her peak as a live artist and became a lasting pop-culture moment.

Cher widens her bid for court oversight of Elijah Blue Allman's finances amid guardianship tug-of-war

Cher pressed a California court to pause her conservatorship bid over Elijah Blue Allman’s finances while a separate guardianship proceeding in New Hampshire determines who should guard his person and estate. Elijah did not attend the Sept. 1 hearing; NH proceedings have involved his half-siblings and, potentially, his wife, with guardianship bonds noted for guardians such as Chaz Bono and Devon Allman. Cher argues a California conservatorship is needed to protect roughly $120,000 a year in discretionary trust distributions from Gregg Allman’s estate, citing concerns about Elijah’s health and financial management. The CA petition was continued for about four months, with a potential dismissal if NH guardianship proves permanent or sufficient; otherwise, the California case could proceed.}{
