US EditionGoldman Family to Collect $58M From O.J. Simpson Estate After Decades-Long Pursuit

- On Saturday, Malcolm LaVergne, executor of O.J. Simpson's estate, accepted Goldman’s creditor claim for $57,997,858.12 plus ongoing judgment interest, marking a breakthrough for Ron Goldman’s family.
- After decades of interest accumulation, Simpson was acquitted in 1995 but a civil judgment was later secured, with Goldman’s family accepting nearly $58 million, TMZ reported.
- Reversing course, Malcolm LaVergne accepted Fred Goldman’s creditor claim, marking a reversal from his earlier stance that the Goldmans would "never" be paid, TMZ reported.
- The IRS will be paid first, followed by approved estate claims, as the estate plans to raise funds through auctions and recovery of stolen memorabilia, given Simpson’s net worth at death last year .
- After decades of interest growth, the settlement of nearly $58 million falls far below the more than $117 million originally claimed after three decades of accrued interest, leaving further collections reliant on estate asset recovery processes.
