Nick Reiner, the 32-year-old son of the late actors Bob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, has filed a legal petition demanding access to his trust fund. The request comes as Hollywood follows the murder trial in which Nick faces two counts of first-degree murder for the deaths of his parents. He has pleaded not guilty.
Details of the Trust Fund Petition
In the petition, Nick Reiner asserts that the trust fund distribution should have occurred when he turned 30. He is now demanding one-half of the trust, with the remaining half scheduled for distribution at age 35. The document states, “Nick loved his parents, and he is devastated by their deaths. But the facts about what did and did not happen to them are not at issue in this Trust litigation.”
The late stars established a separate trust for Nick, known as ‘Nick’s Trust,’ alongside trusts for their other children, Romy and Jake. Bob Reiner also adopted his first wife’s daughter, Tracy. According to the petition, Nick did not receive the mandatory amount and is unaware of the total sum, which is alleged to exceed USD 1.5 million.
Purpose of the Funds
Nick Reiner claims he needs the money to purchase basic support items while incarcerated, such as socks and personal hygiene products like soap, within the low spending limits imposed by the jail. The petition argues that the trust does not authorize the trustee to condition distribution on any subjective assessment of Nick’s intended use of the funds.
Background of the Case
Bob and Michele Reiner were found dead at their Los Angeles home on December 14, 2025, after being stabbed multiple times. Nick Reiner was subsequently charged with their murders. The legal proceedings are ongoing, and a final verdict has not been reached.
