(Memphis, TN) -- The family featured in the Oscar-winning film "The Blind Side" plans to end their conservatorship for former Ravens' first-round draft pick Michael Oher.

Lawyers for Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy made the announcement during a news conference Wednesday, days after Oher accused them of tricking him into the conservatorship.

He filed a petition in a Tennessee court Monday requesting to have the conservatorship ended.

Oher claimed the Tuohys profited off his story.

Sean Tuohy told The Daily Memphian the family "didn't make any money off the movie."
