Sheel Seidler, the widow of late San Diego Padres chairman Peter Seidler, filed suit against two of his brothers Monday in an attempt to gain control of the team.

Sheel Seidler claimed that Matt and Bob Seidler breached their fiduciary duties as executors of Peter Seidler's estate.

At issue is how things have proceeded in the wake of Peter Seidler’s death, which was just over a year ago. Peter was part of a group that purchased the Padres in 2012. Ron Fowler acted as the club’s control person until Peter took over after the 2020 season.
