Supreme Hendrix Decision

(PR) Yesterday, the Washington Supreme Court denied the last appeal in Leon Hendrix� five year challenge of James �Al� Hendrix� Will. Al Hendrix was Jimi Hendrix� father, sole heir and founder of Experience Hendrix, LLC, the family company committed to preserving Jimi Hendrix� musical, cultural and artistic legacy. Immediately after Al Hendrix� death in 2002, Leon Hendrix filed this lawsuit challenging Al�s chosen heirs and his plan for continuing Jimi Hendrix� legacy.

After a lengthy trial in 2004, Judge Ramsdell denied Leon Hendrix� challenge. Leon appealed. In 2006, the Washington Court of Appeals unanimously affirmed Judge Ramsdell�s decision. On June 5, the Washington Supreme Court denied Leon�s last appeal. With this decision, Leon�s challenge is over and the Will can now be carried out as Al Hendrix had intended.

Now that Leon has exhausted his appeals, Janie Hendrix observed, �My dad was an extremely generous man who had a clear vision for preserving and maintaining the legacy of Jimi Hendrix. We�ve done our best to realize that vision. We intend to continue on the path laid out by my father and to redouble our efforts to fulfill that vision.�
