Sued by half-sister
Bobbi-Jo Williams after John Henry and Claudia produced an informal "family pact" signed by Ted, John Henry, and Claudia in which they agreed "to be put into biostasis after we die". Bobbi-Jo insisted that Ted wanted to be cremated and his ashes scattered over his favorite fishing spot in Florida, as per his will. She dropped the suit when it was agreed that a $645,000 trust fund left by Ted would be divided equally among the siblings.
