Overview
- A Madrid court has scheduled an oral hearing for April 2026 to determine whether the Gipuzkoan claimant is the legal heir.
- The estate at issue exceeds €14 million, and the León businessman died four years ago at age 89.
- Earlier proceedings established the claimant’s paternity, with reports citing a court finding that identified the businessman as his biological father.
- Reports indicate the businessman registered in Pamplona to place the estate under Navarre’s foral rules, which can affect children’s inheritance rights.
- The case is led by Seville lawyer Fernando Osuna’s firm, noted for high-profile filiation cases, and both the businessman’s wife and the claimant’s mother are deceased.
