June J. Huston, Plaintiff and Appellant v. Vance Martin and the Estate of Dale M. Jarman, Defendants and Appellees.

Summary

The court affirmed summary judgment against Huston's breach-of-contract and fraud claims, holding that the alleged promise to devise property was unenforceable without a writing and that the fraud claim was barred by the probate nonclaim period. It reversed summary judgment on Huston's unjust-enrichment claim against Martin because genuine issues remained concerning what Martin knew and did regarding the alleged agreement. Any unjust-enrichment claim against the estate remained untimely.
