No. 02-0005.

816 So.2d 988 (2002)

SUCCESSION OF Percy ADAMS, Jr.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Third Circuit.

May 8, 2002.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael Eugene Kramer, Winnsboro, LA, for Administrator/Appellee: Melvin Adams.

Josiah William Seibert, III, Vidalia, LA, for Respondant/Appellant: Doris Adams.

Court composed of MARC T. AMY, MICHAEL G. SULLIVAN and GLENN B. GREMILLION, Judges.


AMY, Judge.

The decedent's wife seeks the marital portion of her deceased husband's estate. The administrator of the estate opposes the wife's claim. The trial court denied the wife a marital portion after comparing all of the wife's property to that of the deceased. The wife appeals, arguing that the trial court erred in considering property that she owns outside of the State of Louisiana. We affirm.
