Wow! All because of legal drama!  It's sad because they are all family too.

The Original Tony Luke's in South Philadelphia will soon be renamed Tony's and Nick's Steaks. The restaurant is separate from the Tony Luke's franchise and brand run by Tony Luke Jr., who splintered his business off from the original cheesesteak shop in 2015. Tony Luke Jr., who worked at the Original Tony Luke's for much of the period investigated by the IRS, was never charged with a crime and was not involved in the tax fraud scheme. The IRS became aware of the fraud during the course of Tony Luke Jr.'s lawsuit proceedings over franchising rights and royalties from the Tony Luke brand.
