803 N.W.2d 907 (2010)

290 Mich. App. 704

In re NALE ESTATE.

Court of Appeals of Michigan.

Decided November 23, 2010, 9:10 a.m.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Simasko, Simasko & Simasko, P.C., Mount Clemens (by Scott E. Bright ), for Julia Cook.

Sherry A. Wells , Royal Oak, for Fayette L. Nale.

Before: OWENS, P.J., and WHITBECK and FORT HOOD, JJ.


PER CURIAM.

Respondent appeals as of right the probate court's grant of petitioner's petition for forfeiture and revocation of benefits. Respondent argues that the probate court improperly construed MCL 700.2803, Michigan's "slayer statute," as preventing her, as one convicted of the voluntary manslaughter of the decedent, from receiving benefits from the decedent's estate. We affirm. This appeal has been decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E).
