It's May 26th, and on this day in 1973, after a tumultuous end to their relationship, Priscilla Presley took a significant legal step. She hired the law firm Tankell, Toll, and Leavitt and scheduled a meeting with Elvis's lawyer, Gregory Hookstratten. In this session, Vernon Presley promised to supply Elvis’s income tax returns for Priscilla’s review. However, when Vernon failed to deliver the documents, Priscilla filed a motion in Santa Monica Superior Court to invalidate their original agreement, which had entailed a lump sum of \$100,000, some cars, and \$1,500 per month in spousal and child support. Priscilla now sought a revised settlement, asking for \$20,000 per month in spousal support and \$2,500 per month for child support.
