In the matter between:
ROSANN
MAUREEN TANKARD
Applicant
and
OLD
MUTUAL WEALTH
Respondent
JUDGMENT
WRIGHT J
1.
The alleged applicant
lost her husband ten years ago, allegedly.
2.
She was allegedly
appointed executrix in his deceased estate about three months ago.
3.
The applicant seeks
urgently orders that the respondent disclose to her details of all
policies held by her husband and she seeks
payment of the proceeds.
4.
She says, vaguely, that
she needs the money otherwise she will be homeless.
5.
No detail of her
financial position is set out or her alleged inability to get other
accommodation.
6.
The answering affidavit
raises a number of defences, including a defence that the wrong
respondent has been cited, which I need
not deal with as urgency is
not proved.
ORDER
Struck off, costs
reserved. -
