34 Cal. 2d 105

Freyermuth v. Speckter

California Supreme Court

Decided June 28, 1949

California Supreme Court · decided 1949-06-28

Relies on Estate of Glass

Decided 1949-06-28

CARTER, J.

¶1I concur in the result but believe that Estate of Glass, 164 Cal. 765 [130 P. 868], is inconsistent therewith and should be overruled. The essence of the holding in that case is that a devise to a named person’s estate is not proper because the word “estate” cannot be construed to mean “heirs or devisees.” In the case at bar the majority determines, and I believe properly so, that the word “estate” should and must be interpreted to mean “heirs or devisees.”
