United States Second Circuit

In an action brought by plaintiff step-children seeking to enforce a contractual estate planning agreement between defendant step-mother and plaintiff's deceased father, the district court's dismissal of the amended complaint for futility is affirmed where plaintiffs lacked standing to sue in their individual capacities and their claims on behalf of defendant's estate were time-barred by California's statute of limitations.
