New York Court of Appeals July 8, 1959 (Johnson v. Stein)

Van Voobhis, J.

This action is brought under article 15 of the Real Property Law to compel the determination of claims to title to a parcel of real property in Babylon, Suffolk County. It had been owned by one Anthony Funk, who died in March, 1948. His distributees were his children, who supposed that their father had died intestate and that they had inherited his real estate.
