The legal battle between Robin Williams‘s widow and his children appears to be nearing a peaceful conclusion. 
 
 Attorneys for Williams’s widow, Susan Schneider, and his three children from previous marriages, squared off in probate court in San Francisco on Monday and agreed to private mediation, hoping to settle a dispute regarding the contents of his estate. 
 
 Schneider and Williams’s children — Zachary, Zelda and Cody — have disagreed over who can claim certain the contents of the couple’s Tiburon, California, home. 
 
 Williams’s will entitles his children to clothing, jewelry, personal photos taken prior to his marriage to Schneider, as well as awards, memorabilia and tangible personal property from his home, where he was found dead last August. Schneider argues that Williams’s will entitles her to certain items, such as his watches and other personal effects. 
 
 
 
 During the hearing, which lasted less than 40 minutes, both sides agreed to meet informally in the next two weeks to arrange a pick-up of various items at the Williams’s home and to have a private mediation before late April. 
 
 Both Schneider and the children were eager to end the stand-off and to keep their personal information out of the public spotlight. 
 
 Andrew Bassak, attorney for Williams’s children, told PEOPLE after the court hearing, “We didn’t want any publicity.” Jim Wagstaffe, Schneider’s attorney agreed, saying, “The trustees and the children do not want this to become public. We are interested in getting it resolved as quickly as possible.” 
 
 “I think we can have all the undisputed items picked up in the next two weeks,” Wagstaffe said, adding, “We could probably do it as early as today.” 
 
 He claimed, “[Schneider and the children] will meet in good faith within the next two weeks,” and said “a large percentage of these items are not disputed.” 
 
 Wagstaffe told the court that his client would like to keep her wedding presents, the tux Williams wore to the wedding and photographs from his 60th birthday in 2011. 
 
 However, Bassak appeared less optimistic that the dispute could be settled so quickly. 
 
 “I don’t know and I can’t speculate,” Bassak told PEOPLE when asked if he agreed with Wagstaffe’s timeline, adding, “There is still a lot to be worked out.”

– Robin Williams' children are fighting his widow in court over how to divide his belongings—and one of the exhibits in the court battle reveals that Williams protected the use of his image in what the Hollywood Reporter calls an "innovative, cutting-edge" way that "just might become a model for other celebrities preparing for their demise." As part of the Robin Williams Trust, Williams bequeathed the legal rights to his name, image, likeness, and signature to a charitable foundation his own legal reps had set up. The Trust decrees that Williams' "right of publicity" won't be exploited for 25 years after his death, meaning that the first time you might see an authorized ad featuring the comedian is 2039. It also means you won't be seeing, at least not immediately, a holographic Williams' stand-up routine a la Michael Jackson or Tupac. "It's interesting that Williams restricted use for 25 years," says one estate-planning expert. "I haven't seen that before. I've seen restrictions on the types of uses—no Coke commercials, for example—but not like this." Meanwhile, Time notes, a "peaceful conclusion" looks to be in store for the aforementioned court battle: Williams' kids and widow agreed yesterday to private mediation, as well as a transfer of various items in the near future. (Meanwhile, daughter Zelda has posted a statement on Tumblr.)
