Haven't been updating much due to the business of the other members and the illness of the lead writer. However we shall, as always, preserver.
We wrote about this case some time ago. Robert McCorkell left his estate to the American-based hate group the National Alliance in his will. Of course one could understand there might be a bit of a concern about a hate group, some of who's members have been connected to and convicted of racially based crimes, receiving that kind of scratch. So a few interested parties, not the least of whom is Robert McCorkell's estranged sister, have challenged with will in court. The National Alliance and their supporters have been crying and gnashing their teeth claiming that challenging the terms of a will is without precedent.
They are, of course, incorrect as wills are challenged all the time and those challenges are sometimes upheld (one such example would be
Dian Fossey's mother who challenged her daughter's will and won).
Paulie has been, perhaps not so surprisingly considering his own ties to National Alliance members, one of the more
histrionic of the McCorkell advocates. A few days ago in anticipation of an upcoming hearing Paulie posted the following:

Back to Court Monday to Try to Get Isabelle McCorkell on the Witness Stand
Fredericton, NB. On Monday, John Hughes, lawyer for Fred Streed,
executor of the Estate of Robert McCorkill, will appear before the New
Brunswick Court of Appeal here to seek Leave to Appeal from a December
17, 2013 decision by Court of Queen's Bench Justice William T. Grant
denying him the right to cross-examine Isabelle McCorkell (yes,
different spelling), the sister of the late Robert McCorkell.
Mr. McCorkell who died in St. John in 2004, left a substantial
collection of ancient coins and artefacts to the U.S.-based National
Alliance. The will received probate in May, 2013. Almost immediately the
Southern Poverty Law Center of Montgomery, Alabama denounced the
bequest and said it should be stopped. he was echoed by Richard Warman
in Ottawa. Soon, after, Isabelle McCorkell who lives in Ottawa and is
the long estranged sister of Professor McCorkill, announced she was
seeking an injunction to freeze the estate until she could bring an
application to have the bequest reversed as it was contrary to the
public interest. Miss McCorkell had shown no interest in the estate
through the nine long years it too to probate.
