ADAMSON V. ADAMSON AND HUNT, 541 P.2d 460 (1975) CASE BRIEF

ADAMSON V. ADAMSON AND HUNT
541 P.2d 460 (1975)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over the equitable interest in a land sale contract between a named purchaser and an intervenor who obtained his interest from a name co-purchaser.
FACTS: This was a family dispute over the equitable interests of the parties in a four-plex apartment in Oregon. Margaret (P) married Brian. P and Brian who were then living with Inez, Brian's mother began searching for their own home. Brian found a four-plex for sale. Brain was the sole purchaser and his mother, Inez advanced the $5,000 down payment. A sales contract was prepared that listed Husband and Wife and Inez. Certain other events occurred to the property; all 6 of them are located on page 284 Rabin 4th. This suit was filed. D contends that P had no interest in the four-plex and the lower court erred in finding one. He contends that both P's and Brian's names were placed on the contract as a kind of insurance if something were to happen to Inez. The trial court decreed that P owned a 2/3rds interest and D owned a 1/3 interest. D appealed.
