Subject: [WSBAPT] FW: VAPO and Financial Abuse

Listmembers:

Has anyone litigated a vulnerable adult case and pursued the case to disinherit the abuser?  We have obtained a protective order on findings that the vulnerable adult was not competent at the time her son "gifted" himself $65,000, and was subject to his undue influence.

                Can I get a trial on financial abuse in the VAPO proceeding?  Or does this require a new action?
                I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has successfully pursued such a case, as to the procedures which were followed.
