Saints owner Tom Benson's estranged family appeals to Louisiana Supreme Court

The estranged family of Saints and Pelicans owner Tom Benson continued to challenge the 88-year-old's mental competency by filing an appeal to the Louisiana Supreme Court on Wednesday (March 23).

Benson's daughter Renee Benson and grandchildren Rita and Ryan LeBlanc -- who Tom Benson disavowed last year -- argue the patriarch is in mental decline and being manipulated by his third wife, Gayle, and Saints executives. The estranged relatives filed a lawsuit last year seeking to take control of Benson's estimated $2.2 billion empire including the sports franchises.

They just won't go away. I feel Benson might die soon because of this pressure.
