A wealthy individual passes away, leaving behind a will that distributes assets among family members and a charitable organization. A distant relative who was not included in the will decides to contest it, claiming that they should have been included as a beneficiary.
The CPM attorney representing the wealthy individual prevailed before the Probate Court by showing the challenging party was not a person interested in the will and lacked standing to bring the challenge. The challenging party appealed the Probate Court’s Decision, which upheld the finding of summary judgment against the challenging party dismissing the will challenge.
