PICKING PRIVACY American Pickers star Frank Fritz’s conservator begs judge to seal his financial records and location amid his recovery

by Teresa Roca

AMERICAN Pickers alum Frank Fritz’s conservator has begged an Iowa judge to seal his financial records and whereabouts as he continues to recover from a stroke. 

Frank’s friends filed an emergency appointment of a temporary guardian and conservator for the star on August 18, claiming his decision­-making capacity is impaired after the July stroke at his home in Iowa.

In court papers exclusively obtained by The U.S. Sun, conservator Midwestone Bank requested to seal the inventory of Frank’s “Protected Person’s real property and monetary assets.”

The request read: “The Protected Person is a well-known celebrity and collector of antiques and other diverse items. The inventory and related documents contain sensitive and private information regarding the Protected Person’s assets and liabilities as well as their whereabouts. 

“The Conservator requests that the court allow the inventory and associated documents to be filed under seal to protect the Protected Person’s privacy and estate.”

A judge approved the request and the documents will not be made public.

The request comes after a “Notice of Delinquency for Conservatorships" was filed on June 2.

An inventory report was not filed by the due date of December 12, 2022. 

The court papers read: “Failure to file the same within sixty (60) days from the date hereof will result in: (1) a report being made to the presiding judge (2) the fiduciary(ies) being subject to removal (3) a report being made to the Chief Judge of the Judicial District and the Administrator of the Judicial Branch, and (4) a report being made to the Committee on Professional Ethics and Conduct (which may result in disciplinary action being taken).”

According to the court filing, MidWestOne Bank is the conservator, while Frank’s friend Chris Davis is the guardian.
