The applicant brought an application for the delivery of a dog pursuant to the deceased's will.
The will provided a legacy of $100,000 for the care of the dog to the individual who assumed its care and residence.
The estate trustee had placed the dog with her son after the applicant allegedly declined to take it.
The court reviewed text messages between the parties and concluded that the applicant did not intend to be the guardian of the dog in accordance with the will.
The application was dismissed.
