Battle of Wills Over The Meaning of Nephews and Nieces in a Will

In this episode, the children of the deceased’s nephews and nieces battle it out with the children of the nephews and nieces of the deceased’s late wife.

How would the court interpret the words nephews and nieces? Would they be given their ordinary meaning, or would the surrounding circumstances be taken into account? Watch to find out. https://youtu.be/Hcp0wQIiQOU
