A messy fight over riches from the “Bank of Barry Sherman” has spilled into court, with one side of the family taking legal action against another six years after the billionaire Apotex founder and his wife Honey were murdered.
The application recently filed in Superior Court comes from two children of Honey’s sister and best friend Mary Shechtman — 29-year-old twins Matthew and Rebecca. They want Shermans son Jonathon and his two fellow estate trustees to provide a full accounting of a mysterious “trust” Barry set up the year before he died. The Shechtman twins believe the trust holds more than $500 million and they and other members of the extended Sherman family are entitled to some of it.
