In re Estate of Schneider

Summary

The court held that the will's gift of any business or interest in any business presented a latent ambiguity as applied to real estate used in connection with the decedent's business. Because the extrinsic evidence showed conflicting facts about whether the shop was part of that business, the county court erred by refusing to consider the evidence and by failing to determine whether a latent ambiguity existed. The order was reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
