OPINION *
McKEE, Circuit Judge.
Jane Adkins appeals the District Court’s order denying her request for damages in her diversity action against her brother, John Sogliuzzo, for mismanagement of Mary Grimley’s estate. Adkins argues she and the estate are entitled to $391,040.05 in damages because Sogliuzzo is liable for undue influence, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, fraud, and misrepresentation for taking cash from Grimley’s home for himself and redeeming Grimley’s bonds. For the reasons that follow, we reverse and remand to the District Court for a determination of damages.
