As Boss did not leave a will, California law dictates that his surviving spouse is entitled to half of his assets. However, to legally take control of the finances and property, the widow is required to file a petition. In the filed petition, Holker presented evidence confirming her marriage to Boss at the time of his passing and was granted property passing rights. According to Page Six, the judge presiding over the case recognized the adequacy of the evidence presented in court and subsequently approved the request based on the submitted documents. Boss' assets, including full ownership of Stephen Boss Productions, were detailed in the court proceedings.
