Rob Reiner’s Son Files to Access $1.5M Trust Amid Murder Trial

Nick Reiner, the 32-year-old son of director Rob Reiner, has petitioned a court to release funds from the $1.5 million trust his parents set up. He says he was due half the money at age 30 and the balance at 35, but the trustee has refused to pay, citing doubts about his ability to manage the funds. In filings, Nick argues he needs the money immediately to hire his chosen defense lawyer after plans to retain Alan Jackson fell through. He claims the delay is harming his ability to prepare for trial on charges of murdering his parents in their Los Angeles home last December. Nick pleaded not guilty to multiple felony counts, including first-degree murder, special circumstances and deadly weapon enhancements. He is now represented by a public defender and seeks an accounting of the trust’s management, damages, and prompt access to his inheritance.
