The plaintiff moved to remove the defendant's law firm as counsel, alleging a disqualifying conflict of interest because the firm had prepared the father's will in 2010, which named both parties as trustees.
The plaintiff argued that the firm possessed confidential information relevant to the current action concerning alleged trustee misconduct.
The court dismissed the motion, finding that the plaintiff was not a former client of the firm and that any information provided by the father for the 2010 will was not relevant to the issues of trustee misconduct in the present action, as the will itself was not being challenged.
