Estate of Farris
Before she died, Leone Farris encumbered her property with loans secured by deeds of trust. She then transferred to her grandson, Joshua Cornelison, a one-half interest in the property. Following Farriss death, Cornelison asked the probate court to rule that the then-outstanding loan balance secured by the property should be charged first against the estates 50 percent interest, so his interest might remain wholly unencumbered if the estates interest is adequate to pay the balance of the secured debt. The court declined, ruling that Cornelisons property interest is encumbered by the trust deed in proportion to his ownership interest, i.e., fifty percent of the amount secured. Cornelison appeals but fails to establish error. Therefore, Court affirm the judgment (order).
