In Re CAPUZZI ESTATE
Michigan Supreme Court
Decided July 2, 2004No. Docket 121106PublishedCited by 27 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtCavanagh, J.
The issue presented is whether the death of the principal revokes his agent’s order to transfer limited partnership shares when all necessary *401actions by the agent were completed before the principal’s death, but the transfer was not yet completed by a third party. We hold that an agent’s actions are not revoked by the death of the principal when the agent has completed all actions necessary for the transaction before the principal’s death. Therefore, we reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals and affirm the decision of the trial court granting the petitioners summary disposition.
