Terry Erwin Stork, a disbarred Austin, Texas, lawyer has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for living in the home of one of his clients who died; and for driving the car of another of his clients.

According to lawsuits and arrest affidavits, Stork systematically mismanaged or stole from the three estates worth more than $800,000 over two decades.

Stork lived in the home of a deceased client from 1987 to 2002 and deposited money from the sale of the home into his own bank account.

Stork pleaded guilty to felony theft charges for stealing from three estates.

A letter from a probate judge led to the investigation of Stork.
