ESTATE OF EMMA MARTIN

No. 4494.

49 Haw. 304 (1966)

415 P.2d 319

IN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE OF EMMA MARTIN, ALSO KNOWN AS EMILY MARTIN AND EMILIE MARTIN, DECEASED.

Supreme Court of Hawaii.

June 14, 1966.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

C.A. Gregory (Smith, Wild, Beebe & Cades) for executor-appellant.

Robert M. Rothwell (Hoddick, Rothwell & Chang) for contestants-appellees.

RICHARDSON, C.J., CASSIDY, WIRTZ, LEWIS AND MIZUHA, JJ.


Per Curiam.

The executor, Bishop Trust Company, appellant in this court, successfully defended an action contesting the validity of the will of its testatrix, Emily Martin, in Probate Court, and maintains here that the contestants, appellees here, lost their right to appeal to the circuit court on the issue of the validity of the will because they failed to effectuate their appeal under the rules prescribed by our statutes.1
