In Re the Accounting of Central Hanover Bank & Trust Co.
Opinion of the Court
Appeals dismissed, with costs to the respondent trustee payable out of the fund, upon the following grounds:
As to the appeal taken directly to this court from so much of the final decree of voluntary accounting (entered in Surrogate’s Court, August 12,1948) as overrules objections interposed by the *904 appellant, sncli decree may not be the subject of direct appeal to this court because the determination thereby made was not one which the Surrogate “ must grant ” upon a motion for judgment or order (Civ. Prac. Act, § 590, cl. [bj).
As to the appeal from the order of the Appellate Division (entered June 21,1948) affirming an intermediate decree of Surrogate’s Court (entered November 26, 1947) in a voluntary accounting proceeding, such a ruling upon objections in the nature of pleadings (Surrogate’s Ct. Act, § 49) —is intermediate in character and does not finally determine the proceeding within the meaning of the Constitution.
As to the appeal taken directly to this court from an order of Surrogate’s Court (entered August 12, 1948) upon the remit-titur of the Appellate Division — such order is intermediate in character and does not finally determine the proceeding within the meaning of the Constitution and may not be the subject of direct appeal to this court under clause (b) of section 590 of the Civil Practice Act. No opinion.
