David Miscavige
- In 1982 in an attempted probate case, Ronald DeWolf, Hubbard's estranged son, accused Miscavige of embezzling from and manipulating his father. Hubbard denied this in a written statement, saying that his business affairs were being well managed by Author Services Inc., over which Miscavige was Chairman of the Board at that time. Judge J. David Hennigan found against DeWolf, dismissing the case on 27 June 1983.[33]
- In 1983, former Scientologist Jesse Prince testified that Miscavige had ordered that various materials authored by L. Ron Hubbard be registered with the U.S. Copyright Office though the materials in question might have fallen into the public domain.[34]
- Starting in September of 2005 all references to Mark Rathbun and Warren McShane, the two other publicly known members of the RTC board of directors, were removed from all Scientology web sites leaving David Miscavige as the only member of RTC Board listed on the RTC website.[35][36]
- On January 25, 2008, Miscavige's niece, Jenna Miscavige Hill, who left the Church of Scientology, wrote a letter to Church spokesperson Karin Pouw which stated that disconnection was a current practice within the Church of Scientology. Hill intended this as a rebuttal to the Church's official statement about disconnection that was made in response to statements made in Andrew Morton's Tom Cruise: An Unauthorized Biography.[13]
