Garrison, Personal Representative of the Estate of Laura H. Garrison, Deceased, Appellant, v. Loyd A. Karr, Respondent. Case Number: 53812 Handdown Date: 04/21/1998 Appeal From: Circuit Court of Worth County, Hon. John C. Andrews Counsel for Appellant: Jerold L. Drake Counsel for Respondent: Barry Anderson Opinion Summary: None Citation: Opinion Author: PER CURIAM Opinion Vote: AFFIRMED. Lowenstein, P.J., Breckenridge and Hanna, JJ. Opinion: O R D E R Lonnie Garrison, personal representative of the estate of Laura Garrison, appeals from the trial court's judgment in favor of Loyd Karr on Mr. Garrison's two-count petition claiming undue influence and fraudulent misrepresentation. Mr. Garrison sought money damages as a result of certain inter vivos conveyances made by his mother, Ms. Garrison, to her brother, Mr. Karr, which he claimed Mr. Karr procured through undue influence and fraudulent misrepresentation. On appeal, Mr. Garrison contends that the trial court erred in entering judgment in favor of Mr. Karr. He asserts that the evidence created the presumption, which was not rebutted, that the conveyances were procured by Mr. Karr's undue influence over Ms. Garrison, as well as his fraudulent misrepresentation of certain material facts concerning Ms. Garrison's relationship with Mr. Garrison. Because there is sufficient evidence to support the trial court's judgment that Mr. Karr did not exercise undue influence on Ms. Garrison and the court's judgment that Mr. Karr did not fraudulently
misrepresent facts to Ms. Garrison was not against the weight of the evidence, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Rule 84.16(b) Separate Opinion: None This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court.
