Judge Rules Ernie Banks’ Will Is Valid

Yesterday a Cook County Probate judge determined that the will signed by Ernie Banks is valid.  The judge confirmed the will that gave all of Banks’ assets to his caretaker after hearing testimony from two paralegals from the law firm that executed it.  The witnesses said that Banks was of sound mind and was not coerced at the time he signed his will. 

Attorneys for Banks’ wife said they would continue to fight, as the judge’s ruling was merely procedural.
