Case Details

A judge in Northern Illinois ruled that a widow, named as executor of her deceased husband's estate, had control over the disposition of his remains, despite the son's argument that he knew the principal's burial wishes.

Additional Notes

The judge noted that if the principal had intended for his son to make decisions regarding the disposition of his remains, the principal could have designated his son through a power of attorney for health care.
