Rambo v. Fischer
Annotate this Case
The Court of Chancery held that the petition in this case alleging that Respondent, a former teacher, befriended and manipulated a woman, now deceased, through coercion into receiving millions of dollars of the woman's inheritances should be dismissed in full, with prejudice.
Petitioner filed a verified petition to, among other things, invalidate will and trust agreements, for breach of a fiduciary duty, and demand for accounting. Respondent filed a motion to dismiss. The Court of Chancery granted the motion, holding (1) most of Petitioner's claims were either expressly time barred or sought a collateral attack on the incontestable final wishes of the decedent and that there was no viable basis for tolling the applicable limitations; and (2) Petitioner did not have standing to assert her remaining claims.
