Overview

• Margherita Agnelli’s lawyers deposited in court a photocopy of a 1998 holographic will attributed to Gianni Agnelli during today’s Turin hearing.
• The document was previously seized by the Guardia di Finanza during an investigation into Marella Caracciolo’s estate and was set aside as irrelevant to alleged fiscal crimes.
• The text, dated January 20, 1998, reportedly assigns about 25% of the family holding Dicembre to Gianni’s son Edoardo, who died in 2000.
• Lawyers for John, Lapo and Ginevra Elkann argue the copy has no effect on the Agnelli or Caracciolo successions, citing Edoardo’s prior death, a 2004 settlement and the expiration of third‑party claims after 20 years.
• The Elkann side notes the photocopy was produced by Margherita on September 28, and the judge’s evidentiary ruling will determine its role in the ongoing civil dispute.
