A guy who has claimed to be Prince's son has filed documents with the estate declaring he plans to sue for a piece of Prince's fortune.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Ogeda Patrick has filed a Notice of Impending Civil Action with the estate. He claims the estate has "erroneously (habitually) omitted Mr. Patrick as the true heir to the Prince Estate."

Patrick first filed a claim with the estate last year claiming he was Prince's son. But a judge ruled in May that Patrick "has not provided facts sufficient to establish the reasonable possibility that [Prince] is his genetic father."

No genetic testing was ever done.

Patrick claims he "has been deprived from assuming ownership of the Prince Estate for nearly a year" and says "this delay of justice has cost Mr. Patrick over $100,000,000.00 ... in possible revenue due to his inability to access the assets of the estate."

He has yet to file a lawsuit and says it is his "goal to resolve this matter at the Court’s soonest convenience with the least amount litigation possible."
