Holding
The court held that the signature card for a bank account created a joint tenancy with right of survivorship in favor of Dominic Gunari, notwithstanding the absence of a checkmark in the "joint tenancy" box, because the written declarations of both parties established their intent to create such an interest, and that the trial court erred in imposing a constructive trust on the funds for the benefit of the estate.
