Court of Appeals of Kansas July 13, 2012, No. 106,622 (Reicherter v. McCauley)

Hill, J.:

In this appeal, we must decide if one joint tenant, 10 days before his death, can effectively destroy a joint tenancy interest in a tract of real estate and replace it with a tenancy in common tenant by signing a quitclaim deed to himself and giving it to his lawyer for recording.
