The dispute centers on the two houses Williams owned at the time of his death — one in Napa and one in Tiburon, California. Susan’s filing calls the Tiburon house the “marital abode,” and the trust, which her late husband most recently amended in 2010, before their marriage in 2011, grants her the Tiburon residence and its contents upon his death.
That’s where things get complicated.
Williams’ widow claims that “within days” of his death in August, the trustees started gathering up the comedian’s property. Within weeks they allegedly informed her they would come to the Tiburon residence to remove more of it.

The Williams children, unsurprisingly, present different case law that indicates a home should be strictly understood to mean the physical location.
A hearing is scheduled for March 30 in Superior Court in Marin County, where Tiburon is located, but Wagstaffe tells THR he hopes the parties will sort it out in discussions before then. Attorneys for the Williams children have not responded to a request for comment.
