Plaintiff Regena Cole maintains in her Long Beach Superior Court lawsuit that she was coerced into signing the agreement by a former 49er Foundation executive and others associated with the univers…
Cal State Long Beach responded on Friday, Nov. 25, to a lawsuit by a 95-year-old woman who wants a judge to rule she is not obligated to make a $25 million donation to music education at the school, saying her attorneys have filed an “ill-considered and unsupportable complaint” in her name.
The suit alleges that those involved in allegedly deceiving Cole “used their relationship with her, her weakened physical and mental health and her dependence and trust in others, to intimidate and control Cole so that they could exert control and dominion over her and her property to gain an alleged irrevocable cash contribution of $25 million to CSULB.”According to her suit, the agreement requires her to make the donation or have the sum considered a debt to her estate after she dies.
Over the past decade, Cole has gradually suffered from memory lapses and moments of confusion, especially after late morning, which cause her to be susceptible and vulnerable to manipulation and isolation, the suit states. Because the signatures of three university representatives appear after the date of Cole’s alleged penning of her name on Aug. 19, 2020 —including that of CSULB President Jane Close Conoley — there is no indication that any of the alleged signings by representatives from CSULB and the 49er Foundation were executed on the same day, the suit states.
