Imagine this happening to people who can't afford good representation. This almost happened to one of the most famous properties in America. It's crazy.

6. Elvis' Granddaughter Riley Keough Calls Graceland Foreclosure Sale Attempt 'Fraudulent' in Court Docs

Riley Keough, Elvis Presley’s granddaughter and the heir to Graceland, is calling a foreclosure sale of the famed property “fraudulent" in a recently filed complaint.

The 34-year-old is the trustee of the Promenade Trust, and is seeking to block Naussany Investments & Private Lending LLC from selling Presley's iconic Memphis home in a non-judicial sale scheduled for Thursday, May 23. Keough also claims in the complaint that the LLC may not even be "a real entity."

Keough's 60-page lawsuit obtained by PEOPLE on Monday, May 20 was filed in response to Naussany Investments & Private Lending LLC claiming that her late mother, Lisa Marie Presley, borrowed $3.8 million and gave them a deed of trust encumbering Graceland as security before her 2023 death.

Keough alleges that “the note and deed of trust are fraudulent and unenforceable.”

“The purported note and deed of trust are products of fraud and those individuals who were involved in the creation of such documents are believed to be guilty of the crime of forgery,” Keough alleges in the suit

Often, the heirs and executor don't really know what to do, and the attorneys they hire can sabotage their control very easilly.

I handled the sale of my parents' farm, which was already in escrow when they died, both on the same day. It was very complicated to do so, even though the farm was held in trust. Fortunately, I had a good lawyer who knew what to do with the entire thing. But, I paid very close attention to any documents I signed and had notarized. It's easy to make mistakes or to be led to make mistakes.
