IN RE ESTATE OF CLIFTON DATES, JR.

Posted by: Azya Thornton on Dec 30, 2024

Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1: Kimbrielle Dates-Watkins, Arlington, Tennessee, pro se appellant.

Attorneys 2: Chasity Sharp Grice, Memphis, Tennessee, for the appellee, Joanne Dates.

Judge(s): DAVIS

This is an appeal from a dispute over a piece of real estate in Shelby County, Tennessee. The property owner executed a quit claim deed transferring ownership of the property to his daughter, who was also his attorney-in-fact, shortly before he died in 2023. After his death, the man’s surviving spouse filed a petition to set the deed aside, claiming that the daughter obtained the deed by undue influence. The trial court held a bench trial and entered an order setting the deed aside. The daughter timely appeals to this Court. Discerning no error, we affirm.
