Morse v. Holland

Jordan, Justice.

Betty Holland, appellee here, filed the will of her husband, Dennis Holland, for probate in the Chatham County Court of Ordinary. The daughters of the testator contested the probate of the will claiming undue influence, intoxication at the time of execution, revocation and forgery. After a lengthy hearing the court of ordinary found for the propounder and a de novo appeal was taken to the Chatham Superior Court. After a four day trial a jury found in favor of the will. From the denial of a motion for new trial, the caveatrices appeal and the propounder cross appeals.
