Redstone Competency Talks Stall, Ex-Girlfriend’s Lawyer Says

Negotiations have stalled in billionaire Sumner Redstone’s effort to settle an ex-girlfriend’s lawsuit claiming he is mentally incompetent, her lawyer said.

After people familiar with the matter said last week that a preliminary agreement had been reached, the talks have hit “a snag,” Pierce O’Donnell, an attorney for Manuela Herzer, said Tuesday.
