Description
MADSEN, J. -- Petitioner Mary McGoldrick challenges the legality and enforceability of a contract obligating her to pay an "heir hunter" 50 percent of the value of property which she is entitled to inherit in exchange for assistance in recovering the property. The trial court granted summary judgment in favor of McGoldrick, holding that the contract is unconscionable and void, and dismissed Respondent Maynard Nelson's action seeking payment under it. The Court of Appeals reversed, finding no unconscionability, but remanded on the issue of whether Nelson performed under the contract. We reverse the Court of Appeals, but also remand because summary judgment on the issue of unconscionability was erroneous on this record.
