Speculation has begun about who will inherit Prince’s fortune. Prince, the legendary musician, is estimated to have a net worth of $300 million. It is also estimated that net worth will grow as additional music is released and his popularity grows.
Be extremely caution, in Missouri you have one year to file a will and in Kansas, you have six months to file a will. If you don’t file the will, it is meaningless.
Unless Prince left a great deal to charity, his estate is likely to owe taxes. Federal estate taxes kick in at 5.45 million.

Connecting a new injury to an old injury in workers’ compensation
The Kansas Court of Appeals recently addressed whether a secondary injury should be compensated under Workers’ Compensation.
The issue before the court was whether the “secondary-injury” rule survived certain 2011 amendments to the workers’ compensation laws.
The court found that the secondary injury rule was still valid.
In the case before the court, the prevailing evidence proved that the hip and back injuries were a result of the limp, which was the result of her ankle fracture.
Good news for the worker, she received additional compensation.
