Attorney: No funeral for late child actor Gary Coleman


SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The independent attorney appointed to oversee the property and cremation of late actor Gary Coleman said today there will be no funeral services for the former child TV star.

A Utah judge on Monday named Robert Jeffs the special administrator of Coleman's estate after a dispute between the "Diff'rent Strokes" star's ex-wife and ex-girlfriend.

Jeffs told The Associated Press on today that Coleman's 2005 will specifies that there should be no funeral services.

Coleman died May 28 after suffering a brain hemorrhage at his home in Santaquin, 55 miles south of Salt Lake City.

The judge ordered that Coleman's remains be cremated no sooner than late this afternoon.
