Revocation of a will by marriage in Lattimer v Karamanoli

Lattimer v Karamanoli related to the estate of the late Dr Evi Kalodiki, a former vascular surgeon, who was terminally ill with cancer when she and her partner (Dr Lattimer, the Claimant) decided to marry. A key issue in the case was whether a will executed just days before a marriage was made in contemplation of that marriage or whether the subsequent marriage served to revoke the will.
