Peschel Family Trust v Colonna and Collona PC.pdf

Read the attached case, then write a case brief explaining what the case is about. No less than 600 words. Your brief should include (but does not have to be strictly in this order):

Issue statement: What issue is the court asked to decide? Recall that often, it is useful to try and formulate your issue statement using "whether/when" language. (**note that there is a secondary issue regarding attorney fees--you do NOT need to brief that issue**)

Rule: What rule (or rules, if more than one) of law is the court using to decide the case? I.e., is there a statute? Is the court using case law (common law)? Identify the source and then explain the rule (or rules) that the court will apply to the facts of the case. If a rule has necessary elements or factors for weighing, you should identify those as well (hint: this court identifies very specific list of factors).

Analysis/Application: When the court applies the rule(s) to the facts of this case, what do they decide? If a rule has elements, were all the elements met? If a rule has factors for weighing, discuss the court's conclusion on each of the factors considered.

Conclusion: What was the outcome? (Was the case affirmed? Sent back to the lower court for some further activity? Overturned entirely?) Was the outcome in favor of the appealing party?
