Abstract

The Becherer Resort case is a decision based case involving the succession of the operation of a resort property after 50 years from Nadine Becherer to her son Lance. Nadine had been managing the property for the last five years after the death of her husband, George, but only wanted to continue overseeing the property until its 50th anniversary. Lance, one of eight children, currently lives on the property in one of the four cabins with his wife and six children. Nadine lives in the family home also on the property. 

Lance has to make a decision as to whether he wants to assume management of the property. He has had a hard time finding steady employment in the area and needs to provide for his wife and family. The general area has limited industry and employment opportunities beyond tourism and the nationwide slump in the housing market and increase in gas prices has especially impacted this somewhat remote location.
