Supreme Court of Alabama January 15, 1859 (Capell v. Landano)

A. J. WALKER, C. J.

The proceedings in the orphans’ court, for the final settlement of the guardian’s accounts, was continuous from its commencement to its dismissal. It was not a proceeding of separate and distinct parts, each complete in itself, but one in which every step, from its commencement, tended to the result of a final settlement by a final decree.
