Summary
Margherita Agnelli, 70, moved to join the criminal tax case against her son John Elkann as a civil party, opening a new front in the family’s legal battle.
Damages are being sought for alleged moral and reputational harm linked to what her lawyers called a fraudulent scheme involving her parents’ succession and control of family holding company Dicembre.
John Elkann, chairman of Stellantis and heir to the Fiat family, now faces the claim within the criminal proceeding rather than only in the broader inheritance dispute.
The filing deepens a long-running conflict over the Agnelli family estate and ownership structure, extending the fallout beyond succession issues into criminal tax litigation.
