Sutherland v. Barker
Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided December 21, 1925 · Gilbert
161 Ga. 465; 131 S.E. 53; 1925 Ga. LEXIS 378

Sutherland v. Barker

Opinion of the Court

Gilbert, J.

The caveator in this case is not an heir at law, and no such interest is shown in him as to entitle him to intervene in the proceedings to probate the will. The judge did not err in sustaining the demurrer to the caveat. Pierce v. Felts, 148 Ga. 195 (96 S. E. 177); Varnedoe v. Cousins, 148 Ga. 229 (96 S. E. 326).

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices eoneur.
