Carol J. Cataldo v. Larry B. Stanley, Sr., Executor of The Estate of James Alton Julian, Deceased

Case Number
M2008-02430-COA-R3-CV

This case arises from the denial of Appellant’s claim against the Appellee Estate of James Alton Julian. Because Appellant held and exercised a power-of-attorney, a confidential relationship existed. The trial court determined that Appellant failed to overcome the presumption of undue influence, that the claim was satisfied by a specific bequest in the decedent’s will, and denied Appellant’s alternate theory of quantum meruit. Finding no error, we affirm.
