Parton Estate Sues Nephew Over Threats, Citing Barbed Wire Blockade
She’s Alive LLC, the entity managing Dolly Parton’s estate, has sued her nephew and former security chief, Bryan Seaver, alleging he used barbed wire and no-trespassing signs to evade legal service. The lawsuit claims Seaver engaged in a campaign of threats and extortion against estate staff and business partners following Parton’s death in August. A Tennessee judge previously granted a temporary restraining order, and a hearing is scheduled for October 9 to determine if it becomes permanent.
