Oregon Supreme Court

1Opinion of the CourtBrand, J.

The evidence in this case must be related to four principal issues: First, was there a confidential relationship between Wilson and the testatrix, did the relationship of attorney and client exist, and, if so, was there a personal and intimate relationship of friendship, confidence and trust over and above that of attorney and client ? Second, what does the evidence show as to the susceptibility of the testatrix to influence? Third, did Mr. Wilson exert influence upon the testatrix, and was it undue? Was it the proximate cause which produced the will under which he was the sole beneficiary?…
