1Opinion of the Court

GRIFFIS, J.,

for the Court:

¶ 1. Mansfield Langston appeals the chancellor’s judgment setting aside the creation of certain joint tenancies with his wife, Patricia McDaniel Langston. He claims that the chancellor: (1) erred as a matter of law in finding that a confidential relationship existed between Mansfield and Patricia and (2) made certain findings of fact that are not supported by substantial credible evidence. We find that the chancellor applied the incorrect standard of law to the particular facts of this case; therefore, the judgment of the chancery court is reversed and rendered.
