Mother-in-Law Calls Her Pregnant Daughter-in-Law’s Baby a Fraud at the Funeral—Then David’s Attorney Arrives With His Final Recording

She changed arguments.

First:

The baby is not David’s.

That collapsed morally.

So next:

David lacked capacity when he amended the trust.

He had not been dying then.

No neurological disease.

No sedating medication.

Three attorneys and a physician could establish capacity.

Weak.

Then:

The shareholder agreement used the term lineal descendants and older provisions referenced blood descendants in one transfer restriction.

That was a real issue.

Finally.

A legal question worth litigating.

Could David’s intended child through donor conception receive restricted Bennett shares under the old agreement?

Different from whether the child could inherit David’s other assets.

Different from whether David was legal father.

Different from whether the trust was valid.
