WI Court of Appeals – District IV
Case Name: Lester A. Born v. Gregory A. Born
Case No.: 2015AP2519
Officials: Lundsten, Sherman and Blanchard, JJ.
Focus: Probate
Lester A. Born appeals an order for summary judgment denying Lester’s petition to admit Judith (Judy) J. Born’s unsigned 1991 will into probate. On Gregory A. Born’s summary judgment motion, the circuit court dismissed Lester’s petition and, after determining that Lester lacked standing to challenge Judy’s October 16, 2014 will, granted Gregory’s petition to admit the 2014 will into probate. Lester argues that summary judgment was inappropriate because he established material facts creating a genuine dispute as to whether Judy was unduly influenced to revoke her 1991 will. We disagree and affirm.
