Holding
The court held that the evidence presented at trial was insufficient to establish either the existence of an oral contract to make a will or the claimant’s full performance of services that were not susceptible to monetary valuation, and thus the claimant failed to meet the exacting standard of proof required for equitable enforcement of such agreements.
