New York Surrogate's Court February 22, 1999 (In re the Estate of Freilich)

OPINION OF THE COURT

Lee L. Holzman, J.

The primary issue raised in this motion and cross motion is whether the respondent may be compelled to produce at her examination before trial her own wills and trusts or whether the attorney-client privilege or the confidential, ambulatory nature of the will of a living person protects these documents from disclosure.
