Matt Seidler’s attorneys filed an answer to the court Monday rejecting the claims of Peter Seidler’s widow and accusing her of taking a ‘wrecking ball’ to his legacy

Matt Seidler, a brother of late San Diego Padres owner Peter Seidler, accuses his sister-in-law, Sheel Kamal Seidler, of misconstruing her late husband's instructions over which family member ought to run the Padres.

Sheel Seidler previously accused two of her brothers-in-law of breaches of fiduciary duty and fraud as executors of Peter Seidler’s estate.

Matt Seidler on Monday filed his response in Texas state probate court to the lawsuit filed by Sheel Seidler, as the family battle for control of the San Diego Padres continues.

Sheel Seidler, the widow of late Padres owner Peter Seidler, filed a lawsuit earlier this month trying to gain control of the team. That suit made various allegations, including that two of Peter’s brothers (Matt and Bob) breached various fiduciary duties as they tried to make an underhanded attempt to control the club and maybe even relocate the team.
