Yet another will in the Gary Coleman saga

Yet another will in the Gary Coleman saga A new purported will and testament from actor Gary Coleman surfaced Friday, creating a three-way battle for control of the TV star's estate and remains. The new will names Anna Gray, reportedly the former head of Coleman's corporation, none as the executor and beneficiary to his estate. The will was dated Feb. 5, 2005, and if valid, supersedes the 1999 will already entered for probate by the actor's former manager, Dion Mial.

The documents were filed with 4th District Court in Provo on Friday. Gray's attorney in Provo, Randy Kester, who also was Coleman's attorney while the actor lived in Utah, was unavailable for comment Friday.

Gray, who lives in Oregon, also filed a petition in court to have Mial removed as the estate's special administrator and instead have Gray named as the representative, according to the documents, which The Salt Lake Tribune obtained Friday.

The tabloid television show, "Entertainment Tonight" identified Gray as the chief executive of a corporation started by Coleman. Another former manager of Coleman's, Robert Malcolm told the news program Friday that Gray met the "Diff'rent Strokes" actor in 1997, none and they became friends and stayed in separate bedrooms in Coleman's Los Angeles home.

Gray also apparently moved in with Coleman into his Santaquin home in 2005 but was later kicked out after he met his soon-to-be wife, Shannon Price. The new will does not name Price or Coleman's estranged parents as beneficiaries or personal representatives. The will also states that all of the model train supplies he owned be given to four model train shops in Southern California. Coleman was known to be a model train enthusiast and had a large train set in the basement of his home.

This new complication comes to light just before Price and her attorneys are to appear in a hearing Monday in 4th District Court to discuss Coleman's estate. Price claims that Coleman had a handwritten codicil, or amendment, to the will in 2007 that gives all assets to her, including their $315,000 home in Santaquin. But Mial claims the codicil is invalid because Price and Coleman divorced in 2008. Price, however, states she and the actor were under a common-law marriage because she continued to live with him up until his death May 28. Coleman was taken off life support in a Provo hospital after suffering a fall in his home earlier in the week that resulted in a brain injury. He was 42.

The hearing is scheduled for Monday at 3 p.m. before Judge James Taylor.
