Larsen v. Bjerke
Supreme Court of Minnesota
1Opinion of the Court
Knutson, Justice.
This is an appeal from a judgment of the district court upholding the validity of a will of decedent, Juliana Holden, attacked on three grounds: (1) That the testatrix lacked mental capacity to make the will; (2) that it was the result of undue influence on the part of Henry A. Berg, her brother; and (3) that it was not executed according to law. The case was tried to the court without a jury on appeal from the probate court, and the district court upheld the validity of the will, reversing an order of the probate court which had refused to admit the will to probate.
