The father of deceased singer Selena is suing over a television project about his daughter’s life, according to court papers obtained by TheWrap.
In the suit, filed in Texas on Dec. 2, Abraham Quintanilla, claims that Selena’s husband, Christopher Perez, violated an estate agreement by writing the 2012 book “To Selena With Love,” which is being adapted into a television series by Endemol Shine Latino.
Quintanilla claims that, pursuant to an estate properties agreement, Perez “expressly confirmed” that Quintanilla held all right to the entertainment properties involved in Selena’s estate. He also alleges that Perez agreed that he wouldn’t exploit the entertainment properties.
