Question 2

An elderly Perth widow invited her niece to leave the Philippines to come to

Australia. The plan was for the niece and her husband to move into the widow's

mansion to keep the widow company for the remainder of her life. The couple was

promised that all the widow's property (a substantial amount) would be willed to

them. The niece left her lucrative acting career, and her husband resigned from a high

government position to make the move.

After a few months of sharing the house, the widow became annoyed, ordered the

niece and her husband to leave and changed her will, leaving everything to various

charities. Can the couple take court action to enforce the agreement with the widowed

aunt?

what is the answer?
