Tom Petty's widow and his two daughters from a previous marriage can't agree on how the late rocker's estate should be managed. Now they've taken the fight to probate court.

, “sadly, they, and in particular Adria, have repeatedly demonstrated their resentment over their father’s love of Petitioner and her role in his life.”

Dana Petty says in the petition that Adria Petty’s “erratic behavior has made it exceedingly — and increasingly — difficult to carry on business and has threatened the Trust’s business dealings and important relationships,” the Blast reports., has included hostile emails directed at members of Tom Petty’s band, the Heartbreakers.

The daughters are blocking the release of new solo tracks that Tom Petty recorded 25 years ago, TMZ said. Dana Petty wanted to put them in an anniversary box-set re-release of the album “Wildflowers,” which would potentially make more than a million dollars in royalties, the site says. Meanwhile, in her own petition, Adria Petty is blaming Dana Petty for failing to put the rocker’s “artistic properties” into an LLC that was, per Tom Petty’s will, to be divided equally between the three women, Billboard reported. With her sister, Adria Petty reportedly wants to be part of decisions on"marketing, promotional, and artistic considerations" regarding her father's posthumous releases, the publication said.

morgfair This is bad estate planning. Leaving the wife as the executor instead of a music professional manager.

Three nonproductive heifers fighting over this guy's life's work.

When our loved ones pass, many people suddenly turn into shallow, green-eyed, money-grubbing, ugly MONSTERS. It is absolutely sickening. TomPettyEstate

Well the Left would just 'estate tax' all of it for re-distribution anyways.

And that's who gonna get most the money...

What a shock.

Where theres a will theres a relative.
