Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- in will contest, spousal relationship militated against presumption of undue influence by testator’s wife
- in will contest, spousal relationship militated against presumption of undue influence by testator's wife
- “The law does not and should not presume a spouse to be guilty of undue influence simply by reason of the marital relationship alone [citation omitted] or because the spouse has been able throughout the marriage to have considerable influence on her spouse.”
- “The mere facts that the testator’s health was deteriorating, that he was characterized as withdrawn and disinterested, and that [the fiduciary] was talkative and outgoing, while being relevant, do not give rise to an automatic inference that she dominated the testator.”
