Tennessee Supreme Court

Decided May 27, 1938PublishedCited by 12 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Cook

The original bill was filed by the heirs of H. T. Bogers March. 16, 1931, after Ms death, on March 4. The object of the bill was to set aside the deed of Rogers conveying to his wife, Archie Lee Rogers, a farm of 358 acres in Shelby County near the Tipton County line, the consideration for which was “love and affection.” It was charged in the bill that H. T. Rogers was mentally incapable and executed the deed under undue influence. Mrs. Rogers answered the original bill before her death December 18, 1931. The litigation is now between the heirs-at-law of H. T. Rogers and of Mrs. Rogers.
