““A constructive trust is one that arises by operation of law against one who, by fraud, actual or constructive, by duress or abuse of confidence, by commission of wrong, or by any form of unconscionable conduct, artifice concealment, or questionable means, or who in any way against equity and good conscience, either has obtained or holds the legal right to property which he ought not, in equity and good conscience, hold and enjoy.” In re Estate of Abernathy, 778 So.2d 123, 126 (Miss.2001). To prove such a trust should be imposed by this Court, a confidential relationship must be proven plus an abuse of confidence. McNeil v. Hester, 753 So.2d 1057 (¶ 25) (Miss.2000) (quoting Davidson v. Davidson, 667 So.2d 616, 620 (Miss.1995)). This must be proven by clear and convincing evidence. Id.”
