A businesswoman has lost her appeal over a decision by her deceased husband to leave his home, his share in their joint business, and his savings to his children from his first marriage and his grandson.
In a judgment delivered on Wednesday, Appellate Judges Peter Rajkumar, Maria Wilson and Ricky Rahim rejected an appeal brought by Sumatie Maharaj against her stepson Darshan, who was the executor of his father’s estate.
According to the evidence in the case, in 1991 Dhanraj Maharaj separated from his wife with whom he had four children, including Darshan.
