California Court of Appeal

Decided January 10, 1966No. Civ. 22800PublishedCited by 7 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtMolinari, J.

This is an appeal by Charlotte L. Wiedemann from the judgment of the trial court denying her petition for preliminary distribution and decreeing that she is not entitled to distribution of any portion of the estate of her husband, Fred C. Wiedemann. The sole issue presented on this appeal is whether the nontestamentary agreement which Charlotte entered into with her husband prevents her from taking certain personal property bequeathed to her in her husband’s will, which was executed prior to the agreement and not changed thereafter. We are of the opinion that it does.

Fred C. Wiedemann died on…
