    She should have sued for $5000. They took ALL THE MONEY from Dad's account which should have been split prior to the house fix-up.

      Exactly right not to mention the fact that they had her agreed to sell the house at a very low price because it was sold within the family and lied to her saying that her nephew was going to live in it. Instead, her brother and his wife and his son rented the property out and they're all benefiting from it! These people are disgusting for doing their own sister like that. Karma's a b**** is all I can say

      I only have one brother. In 2006, he "sold" his house to me and the family cabin to my brother. In 2019, we all went in to a lawyer to draw up a will for dad and ma. Dad also switched some of their bank accounts to be joint with me and some joint with my brother, and specifically naming us as beneficiaries on others (my mom is in an assisted living home now, and dad in a Veteran's Home). The big personal property goes to my brother (cars, boats, atvs, etc, to go along with the cabin), and dad said he trusts that the small sh!t will be distributed/disposed of fairly between us, or some of his brothers and nieces/nephews, as we see fit. When our parents pass, there will be nothing to fight over.

The defendant isn't working, and is making a penny packet of their father's home, and only supplied a portion of the estate with his other siblings.

The father's money should pay for his funeral and if the nephew/son wanted the house, he should put HIS own money into it, not what was in the bank to be divided amongst the siblings.

    I believe the plaintiff went to court not only for the money but also because her siblings deceived her when they bought the house. According to their argument, the house was sold for $7,500, and they used their father's money (which would have otherwise been divided among them) to repair the house. This means that the value of the house had increased beyond $7,500. If they spent their own money on repairs, then they should subtract that amount from the increased value of the house, not from the $7,500. It seems suspicious to me.
