About this listen

On today’s show, we look at whether someone can essentially “testify from the grave,” breaking down how a deceased person’s prior statements may be used in court and what the Dead Person’s Statute means for a case. We examine a slip and fall claim involving a snowplow contractor and discuss whether a contractor can be held responsible for injuries during an active storm under the ongoing storm doctrine. We explore a zoning dispute where a private club sought to convert its pickleball courts into tennis courts but was denied a required special permit, raising questions about local zoning authority and land use restrictions. We turn to estate planning and last wills and testaments, answering common questions about creating a will and who may have the right to challenge it.

In the spirit of reconciliation, Audible acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
