In re the Probate of the Will of Satterlee

Opinion of the Court

Section 87 of the Surrogate’s Court Act rests discretion in the Surrogate. Without having before us the merits of the appeal from the decree admitting the will to probate, we are unable to say that there was any abuse of discretion in the issuance of letters testamentary pending appeal. Order unanimously affirmed, with disbursements to all parties payable out of the estate. Present ■— Peck, P. J., Callahan, Van Voorhis, Heffernan and Bergan, JJ.
