Description

The sole issue presented by this appeal is whether Anna L. Litaker, predecessor in title to defendants, took a fee simple interest or whether she held the property as trustee for the plaintiffs when she, as life tenant, purchased the property at a foreclosure sale. We hold that she held the property as trustee for plaintiffs, and at her death, the title to the property passed to plaintiffs by operation of law. Thus, the purported devise of the property to defendants is invalid.
