2 Dem. Sur. 263

Silverbrandt v. Widmayer

New York Surrogate's Court

Decided November 15, 1883

New York Surrogate's Court · decided 1883-11-15

Application by Charles Silverbrandt, Jr., for an attachment against Henry Widmayer and another, administrators of decedent’s estate, for failure to file an inventory.

Decided 1883-11-15

The Surrogate.

¶1The affidavit which opposes petitioner’s application does not show sufficient cause why that petition should be denied.

¶2A verified statement in the form of an inventory, and ontaining the very matters here averred in respondent’s hhalf, might be deemed a sufficient inventory if acompanied by an appraisal. And such an appraisal *264may be had even without actual inspection of assets. In the decision to the contrary, upon which respondent’s counsel relies (Matter of Robbins, 4 Redf., 144), the late Surrogate seems to have overlooked the case of Butler’s Estate (38 N. Y., 397).

¶3Petition granted.
