A Houston funeral home director appeared in court on Friday on multiple felony charges involving a scheme to steal more than $2.2 million from a deceased man’s estate.
Unique Mica Green-Battle is accused of forging documents to claim he is the spouse and successor of the victim, Lawrence Gammon. The forged documents include a fake will, a falsified death certificate, forged probate documents, and fraudulent filings used to gain control of the estate, according to Fox 26.
Police executed a search warrant of Green-Battle’s business in November 2025 after families accused the funeral home of mishandling corpses and committing fraud.
During a search of the business, investigators reportedly found human organs in a bucket and boxes of cremated remains.
Green-Battle was also operating the business without a license after the license expired in 2021 and was revoked in August 2025.
The apparently trans funeral director appeared in court on Friday, where a judge set bond at $800,000. Green-Battle was released after posting the bond.
“Court documents dating back to 1998 list Green-Battle at different times as male and female. The Chronicle could not confirm Green-Battle’s gender identity or pronouns. Harris County Jail records listed Green-Battle under the name Michael James Green as of Wednesday morning,” the Houston Chronicle reported.
