Paul Walkers car collection is missing some cars, they seem to have been jacked the day after his death, by his associate Richard Taylor. Lawsuit filed, we'll have to wait and see how this turns out

"[Taylor] has intentionally and fraudulently concealed the existence and location of such vehicles from Plaintiff in order to wrongfully convert such vehicles for his own use or benefit,” reads the suit. Paul Walker III, the actor's father and executor of his estate, asserts that he asked for the cars' whereabouts and Taylor didn't answer so that he could "extort money and other concessions."

Walker's estate filed suit against Richard Taylor on Thursday June 11th 2015, at the Los Angeles Superior Court, alleging that within 24 hours of the actor's death, people associated with Taylor went to storage facilities that housed the actor's vehicles and removed them to locations unknown  in order to convert them for his own benefit.

In the court filings, Taylor is identified as an acquaintance of Walker who would occasionally assist him with his automobile collection. It is said that Taylor would maintain the ownership records and registration certificates for Walker's extensive collection.

The suit alleges that in March 2014 Taylor created a list titled "Paul Walker Current Car Inventory List" that was sent to the estate and purportedly identified all the cars owned by Walker at the time of his death. The list identified 31 cars owned entirely by Walker and one car jointly owned with Rodas but failed to include additional vehicles owned by Walker.

A total of seven cars are identified as missing from the number owned by Walker, according to the suit, including a 2011 Porsche GT3 RS, a 2008 BMW M3, a 2006 Crown Victoria and a 2004 GMC truck, according to the suit.  The suit further alleges that Taylor has repeatedly failed to provide a number of original car registrations for the cars already identified on the inventory list.

Walker's estate is suing for the return of the vehicles and certificates, or value of the vehicles if they cannot be delivered, along with to-be-determined compensatory damages.

A trial by jury was also demanded.
