You raised an interesting point as usual.
Did Anna get any stock in Koch from JHM? Could the caretaker have taken care of that?
Just curious, because a family member - by marriage inherited Oil stocks that paid monthly dividends, but the inheritance included a codicil - upon her death the stock reverted to the bio family, not hers. It was Texas!
No, no Koch stock. It’s not transferable, anyway, because it’s closely and privately owned, mostly by the Koch family.
JHoward was an exception to that, in that he owned one of the companies that was an early partner in the company that eventually became Koch Industries. His portion was just a small percentage.
Eventually, he created Marshall Petroleum Inc. (”MPI”) with his Koch stock forming the bulk of the company’s assets. An MPI representative has a seat on the Koch BofD. That’s currently Elaine Marshall, Pierce’s widow.
It is that company’s total assets and dividend rate that ANS’s atty’s targeted for her claim of money she thought she was owed from a non-existent living trust that she *said* JHoward was to have set up (but he didn’t).
Her basis of claims against Pierce was that Pierce interfered with JHoward setting up that trust, just because Pierce didn’t like her. So far, that has not ever been proven and I doubt it ever would be, because it’s a falsehood.
Remember, the video where she tried to talk JHoward into stating he wanted her to have half his property didn’t surface from Aunt Elaine (Tabers, not Marshall) until after the last trials and SC appeal.
