BARNES, J.,

for the Court.

¶ 1. This appeal involves a will contest and a contest over inter vivos gifts. Doris Frazier, the sister of the decedent Gus Caspelich, appeals the judgment of the Chancery Court of Harrison County, Second Judicial District. The chancery court ruled that the decedent’s will, which left his estate to Joyce Loew, was valid. The chancery court found that no confidential relationship existed between Gus and Joyce either at the time of the inter vivos gifts or at the time of the execution of the will. Finding no error, we affirm.
