Docket entry

081100 Parfitt v. Parfitt 02/27/2009 The trial court erred in dismissing a complaint filed by the administrator of an estate against the decedent's son, based on an erroneous finding that a confidential relationship did not exist with respect to transactions involving a joint bank account. The trial court also erred in applying evidentiary burdens regarding proof of undue influence and corroboration necessary under the dead man's statute. The judgment is reversed and the case is remanded for a new trial consistent with this opinion.
