California Supreme Court January 14, 1955, S. F. No. 18964 (Brown v. Hatch)

SPENCE, J.

This is an appeal by the attorney general from an order denying his petition to determine heirship. (Prob. Code, § 1080.) He previously attacked this ruling in a mandamus proceeding, contending that the superior court sitting in probate had erroneously failed to take jurisdiction of the heirship issue.
