According to a report from The Daily Caller, Ginsburg left the majority of her estimated $6 million estate to her two children, James and Jane Ginsburg.
The third person named was Ginsburg’s housekeeper.
TMZ reported that Ginsburg’s personal property — her car, furniture, books, jewelry, clothing, etc — named in the will was worth approximately $500,000. The rest of her personal property, the specifics of which were not disclosed, was estimated at $5.5 million.
James and Jane, who were also named executors of Ginsburg’s will, each received an estimated $3 million. Ginsburg’s longtime housekeeper, Elizabeth Salas, was the third person named and will reportedly receive $40,000 in cash.
Salas was close to Ginsburg, having worked for the late justice for 22 years. She was seated next to then-Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden when Ginsburg lay in state at the Capitol Rotunda.
The report on the $6 million estate only includes Ginsburg’s personal property — called her probate estate.
