Monnet v. Freeman

ORDER DENYING RELIEF

The court treats the paperwork on file both as an application to invoke its original jurisdiction under Art. 7, § 4, Okl. Const., and as the petitioner’s quest for this court’s administrative review — in the exercise of powers conferred upon it by Art. 7, § 6, Okl. Const. — of petitioner’s assignment by the respondent to the probate division of the District Court, Oklahoma County.

On consideration of the paperwork laid before it, the court denies the relief sought. Art. 7, § 10(b), Okl. Const.; 20 O.S.1981 § 23, subdiv. (2); Rule 2, Rules on Administration of Courts, 20 O.S. 1981, Ch. 1, App. 2; Graham v. Cannon, Okl., 574 P.2d 305, 309 [1978],

with whom KAUGER, Justice joins, concurring in result.

I would assume original jurisdiction and deny Petitioner the relief sought based upon the authorities as cited by the majority in its Order. That having been done I would view as unnecessary any action of an administrative nature.
