Estate settlement ends two year court fight over Dorcus estate
A Maryland circuit court ended a near two year dispute over the Dorcus estate valued around 125000. The court dismissed claims of a claimed family agreement and invalid transfers by Elsie Dorcus Witmer to Charles Witmer and others. Grandchildren alleged mental incapacity and undue influence by their aunts, but the opinion voided no deed and left the estate to heirs as settled.
