Undue Influence. Susie Walker executed a will that left her entire estate to her grandson. When her grandson died, Susie executed a new will that named her great-grandson as her sole beneficiary and specifically disinherited her son, Tommy. At the time, Tommy’s ex-wife was living with Susie.

After Susie died, Tommy filed a suit, claiming that her will was the product of undue influence on the part of his exwife.

Several witnesses testified that Susie had been mentally competent when she executed her will. Does undue influence appear likely based on these facts? Why or why not? [In re Estate of Walker, 80 A.D.3d 865, 914 N.Y.S.2d 379 (3 Dept. 2011)] (See page 958.)
