Supreme Court of Georgia

Patterson-Fowlkes v. Chancey

October 1, 2012291 Ga. 601

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of the caveator's post-verdict motions and upheld the jury's finding that the decedent possessed testamentary capacity when she executed her will. Applying an any-evidence standard and viewing the evidence favorably to the propounder, the court relied on the execution videotape, witness testimony, and evidence that the decedent understood and consistently expressed her intended property distribution.
