LOS ANGELES — Chargers owner Dean Spanos has been accused of "misogynistic" behavior and repeated "breaches of fiduciary duty" by his sister in a petition for an existing probate case that this week advanced the siblings' ongoing legal battle regarding ownership of the team.
The petition was filed in San Joaquin County Superior Court by attorneys representing Dea Spanos Berberian, who seeks control of a family trust that makes up 36% of the Chargers' ownership.
Spanos and Berberian were left as co-trustees of the trust following the deaths of their parents, Alex and Faye, in 2018.
