New York Court of Appeals

Decided March 23, 1909PublishedCited by 2 opinions

Appeal from an order of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the first judicial department, entered July 8, 1908, which affirmed an order of the New York County Surrogate’s Court remitting the proceeding herein to an appraiser with instructions to ascertain and report the amounts to be deducted for expenses of administration and commissions from a transfer tax theretofore fixed.

1Per curiam

While we would have no difficulty in disposing of this appeal by affirming the order on the merits if the appeal was properly before ns, we are of the opinion that the order appealed from is interlocutory and, therefore, the appeal must be dismissed, with costs.
