Walker v. Walker

Illinois Supreme Court
Walker v. Walker, 168 N.E. 299 (Ill. 1929)
336 Ill. 191
Dunn

Walker v. Walker

Opinion of the Court

Mr. Justice Dunn

delivered the opinion of the court:

A petition for the probate of an instrument of writing as the will of Alice Ann Walker, deceased, was filed in the probate court of Cook county by Fred Walker, a son of the testatrix, who was nominated as executor and was a beneficiary of the will. The probate court ordered the will admitted to probate, and upon appeal from that decision by John Walker, another son and beneficiary, the circuit court made a similar order, from which John Walker appealed to this court.

There is nothing in the record to show that a freehold is involved or that any other ground for a direct appeal to this court exists, and the appeal is therefore transferred to the Appellate Court for the First District.

Cause transferred.
