R&B diva Whitney Houston is reportedly being sued by her step-mother for the remaining proceeds of her late father's $1 million life insurance policy.

Whitney was the beneficiary of the money following her father's death in 2003. In a lawsuit filed in May (2008), Barbara alleges her stepdaughter was instructed to use John Houston's $1 million life insurance policy to pay off the mortgage on his apartment and hand over the title to the property and any remaining funds, according to TMZ.com.

Barbara's lawsuit claims she was supposed to get the remaining proceeds as well as the title to the property, and that Whitney has yet to give her either one.
