Lamb v. Scott

The issue in this case is the validity of a deed executed by Rita D. Lamb, the donee of a durable power of attorney, to herself and her sister, Judy C. Heliste.

Timothy D. Scott sued Lamb and Heliste, asking that the deed executed by Rita Lamb to Rita Lamb and Judy Heliste be set aside and held for naught. The complaint also asked that the property described in that deed be sold for a division of the proceeds among joint owners. (Scott claimed to be a joint owner.) Scott moved for a summary judgment. The trial court granted Scott's motion and declared the deed void. Lamb and Heliste appeal.
