6073 - In RE: Estate of Stephen Day Ward (Ward v. Ward)
In this dispute over the estate of the late Stephen Day Ward, Jr., Stephanie Ward Cibinic, David D. Ward, and Brian C. Ward (collectively, Appellants) challenge the finding that their father's surviving wife, Mary K. Ward, was entitled to an omitted spouse's share. We affirm the orders of the probate and circuit courts.
6074 - 315 Corley CW, LLC v. Palmetto Bluff Development, LLC
In these cross appeals, Appellants/Respondents Developers (the Defendants) appeal the circuit court's order refusing to compel arbitration in a dispute arising from several contracts underlying the Defendants' sale of real estate in the Palmetto Bluff Development to Respondents/Appellants Homeowners (the Plaintiffs). The Plaintiffs cross appeal the circuit court's order denying summary judgment for their declaratory judgment action. We affirm the circuit court's order denying the Defendants' motion to compel arbitration and dismiss the Plaintiffs' cross appeal.
