In Re The Estate of Mary E. Schaumberg

Syllabus

In this action to contest a will, the trial court determined that the contestants were estopped from maintaining their action because they had received property from the decedent's estate pursuant to the will's provisions and were therefore bound by its terms. The will contestants have appealed. Determining that the elements of estoppel were not proven, we vacate that portion of the trial court's final order and remand this matter to the trial court for further proceedings.

Judges: Judge Thomas R. Frierson, II
