Mentally incompetent persons on contract

Post by bbwinston » Sun Dec 11, 2011 1:22 am

Manzelle Johnson, who had been adjudicated insane, executed a quitclaim and warranty deed conveying real estate she owned to her guardian, Obbie Neal. Neal subsequently conveyed the real estate to James R. Beavers by warranty deed. Charles L. Weatherly, Miss Johnson’s present guardian, brought this action seeking a decree of the court that title to the real estate be restored to Miss Johnson because of her inability to contract. Should Miss Johnson be allowed to void the contract?
