After Heath Ledger's death in February 2008 from an accidental drug overdose there has been an investigation and court battle for heath's 3 year old daughter, Matilda. Heath wrote his will before his daughter was born and left all inheritances to his family. A life insurance company wants to give Matilda 10 million dollars. Another insurance company wants to investigate the death to see if it was a suicide or accidental death. If it is proven that his death is a suicide they wont give Matilda the 10 million dollar check. One of the lawyers says that there is no proof that it was a suicide so this investigation might not continue. They are trying to keep this investigation private for the matter. Even though Matilda is left with no inheritance, heath's family will donate the whole estate to Matilda.
