Description

This is an appeal from a declaratory judgment construing a clause in the will of Paul W. Drummet, deceased. The trial court entered a take nothing judgment against appellant, Bill Marlin, (Marlin) as to the estates executor, the surviving widow, and third parties who were involved in the purchase of land from the Drummet Estate. The principal question presented for review is an issue of first impression: Is appellant Marlin, who is designated by the will as exclusive real estate agent for the sale of real property devised to the widow Drummet, a conditional beneficiary and thereby entitled to collect his specified commission from the sales proceeds of estate real property which was sold through another agent? We conclude that appellant Marlin was a conditional beneficiary and reverse the judgment of the trial court.
