A significant donation intended for the Phoenix Symphony is now the subject of a court dispute. The trustee of a late couple's trust has asked a judge to freeze and reverse a $6.5 million gift. This request comes after the symphony announced it was suspending its season and laying off all musicians. The trustee alleges the symphony withheld crucial financial information before the donation was approved. The symphony denies misleading anyone and plans to contest the motion.
