The estate of O.J. Simpson has reached a settlement to pay nearly $58 million to Fred Goldman, the father of Ron Goldman, as revealed by court documents filed in Las Vegas on Friday.

O.J. Simpson, the former football star and celebrity who was acquitted of the infamous 1994 murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman, passed away on April 10, 2024, in Las Vegas at the age of 76.

In a civil trial back in 1997, a California judge found Simpson liable for the deaths of Nicole and Ron, ordering him to pay $33.5 million to the victims’ families. However, in 2021, a Las Vegas judge updated this amount, mandating Simpson to pay the Goldmans nearly $58 million, factoring in accrued interest.

Following Simpson’s death, Fred Goldman initiated a creditor’s claim against Simpson’s estate in the Clark County District Court. This sizeable sum represents the outstanding balance and accumulated interest, which remained unpaid by Simpson and his estate.

A probate judge is overseeing a case to settle parts of Simpson’s estate and trust. That case involves the auctioning off of personal items.

The estate approved the judge’s nearly $58 million figure, plus interest, documents said.

“The executor will continue to work with Claimant Goldman on a more accurate accounting of interest accumulation based on the variable rate nature of the Nevada judgment interest computation, either through a stipulation or a petition for compromise,” documents said.

Simpson’s death certificate said he died from prostate cancer, which metastasized to his bones. The document said he had cancer for a year.

The next court date in the probate case was scheduled for January.
