Court Upholds Oral Contract For Boy To Inherit Farm
Grundy Center Iowa September 24 An elderly bachelor promised to leave his farm to neighbor boy Jerry Kuper in return for serving him and running errands. The district court awarded Kuper the entire estate after proving he fulfilled the agreement. Geske Becker had challenged allocations, but the court sided with Kuper. Earlier, the case reopened, and Kuper filed a cross petition asserting the oral contract entitled him to the property. The decision preserved the heirship and transfer of both real and personal property.
