Estates and trusts — Prenuptial agreement — Marital home
This appeal concerns three consolidated cases from the Circuit Court for Montgomery County. In the first case, appellee Charlotte Walker filed a claim against appellants, which consist of the estate of her deceased husband John Walker, his revocable trust, and two corporations he previously owned and controlled. In her claim against her husband’s estate and revocable trust, Charlotte sought to enforce the terms of a prenuptial agreement, asserting that she was entitled to sole ownership of the couple’s marital home and that the estate and the trust were obligated to pay the mortgage on the home.
