Holding
The court held that the statute of limitations for a claim based on the reasonable value of services rendered under an oral agreement to compensate by will does not commence to run upon the termination of those services, but rather, accrues upon the promisor’s death without having fulfilled the promise—or upon an earlier repudiation of which the promisee has knowledge.
