Trusts and Estates – wills – undue influence

APPEAL from orders of the circuit court for Milwaukee County: JANE V. CARROLL, Judge. Affirmed.

Lori Laatsch and Robyn L. Cox, formerly known as Robyn L. Laatsch, appeal the order denying their motion to admit the March 10, 2008 will of Laatsch’s half-sister, Rebecca Derzon, into probate, and finding Rebecca’s March 10, 2008 will and trust to be the products of undue influence and therefore invalid. The trial court’s order was supported by a thoughtful, well-reasoned decision, and Laatsch’s arguments on appeal in no way undermine or cast doubt on that decision. Consequently, we affirm.

2012AP002590 Lori Laatsch v. Alan Derzon

DISTRICT I, Milwaukee County, JANE V. CARROLL, Curley, P.J., Kessler, J., Thomas Cane
