Quincy Jones III<\/a> plans to serve as the executor of his late father’s estate, according to a new court document … this after his sister Rashida<\/a> and his uncle Richard Jones turned it down.<\/p>\n

According to Friday’s filing, Jones named Richard Jones as his first choice of executor … but Richard decided he didn’t want to do it.<\/p>\n

His second choice was with either Quincy III or Rashida … and, ultimately, Quincy III stepped up while Rashida stepped back.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The next hearing date is scheduled for May 11.<\/p>\n

As you know … Quincy<\/a> passed away in 2024 at the age of 91<\/a> after a battle with pancreatic cancer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"rashida<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Rashida paid tribute<\/a> to her late father shortly after he died … calling him a “genius” in her heartfelt message.<\/p>\n

Jones’ mansion hit the L.A. real estate<\/a> market for $60 million last spring … and, while the price has been chopped down to $40 million, it still hasn’t sold.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Quincy Jones’ Estate Son Quincy III Named Executor … Rashida, Richard Jones Turned it Down Published April 10,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":596209,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[49,48,361,75],"class_list":{"0":"post-596208","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-celebrities","11":"tag-entertainment"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/596208","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=596208"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/596208\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/596209"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=596208"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=596208"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=596208"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
