That is the length of the probate petition Nick Reiner just filed to force the release of over $1.5 million from the trust fund Rob and Michele Reiner created for their children. He wants the money for a high-powered defense attorney. He wants it for soap and socks. And he wants it before a conviction can trigger the one law designed to stop him. California’s slayer statute says if you intentionally and feloniously kill someone, you do not inherit from them. Not a dollar. Not from the trust. Not from the estate. If Nick Reiner is convicted, the door slams shut. Everything goes to Jake and Romy. So what does Nick do? He files now. He demands the court compel immediate release. He calls the distributions “mandatory and unconditional.” He claims the trustee is using a “shifting series of excuses.” And his petition includes this line: “No use of his funds could be more important.” His legal team is arguing that the charges against him — the charges that he killed his own mother and father — are the reason to speed up the payout, not slow it down. Tony Brueski walks through the petition, the family’s decision to cut Nick off, the legal framework that could block every cent, and the pattern of behavior that makes this filing the most predictable move Nick Reiner has ever made. His siblings already said no. The trustee already said no. This episode explains what happens when the only person who has never accepted a no tries to override everyone who has.
