Mom of Doris Duke heirs used bodyguards to avoid process server in Utah

Mom of Doris Duke heirs used bodyguards to avoid process server in Utah

The mother of Doris Duke’s twin heirs dodged a process server for many weeks in Utah, hiding behind her children and bodyguards, to avoid being served papers to be summoned to  court in New York, according to an affidavit filed in Surrogate Court.

The mother of Doris Duke’s twin heirs dodged a process server for weeks in Utah, hiding behind her kids, blocked phones and bodyguards, to avoid being dragged to court in New York, according to an affidavit filed in Surrogate Court.

Lawyers for Citibank and JP Morgan — who watch over multi-million dollar trust funds for the teenage twins — were summoning Daisha Inman to court to provide a detailed accounting of how she has spent their inheritance in the last few years.

The bank trustees suggested in Manhattan Surrogate Court earlier this year that Inman has been squandering her children’s inheritance — most recently at the behest of an ex-husband who is a convicted child molester.

According to a Utah process server, Nik Coffen, he started trying to give Inman the papers at her Park City home on May 9 but she wasn’t there.

Inman’s 15-year-old son and daughter, Walker and Georgia, “were very polite and helpful and gave me Daisha’s phone number,” Coffen says.

The twins said their mother was staying with a friend and would return the following week.
“She was not cooperative at all,” Coffen said.n May 11, Coffen says, Inman returned his phone call from a blocked phone and spoke for about 11 minutes.
