In re the Accounting of Zalewski
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
Decided November 23, 1942PublishedCited by 1 opinion
1Opinion of the Court
The Consul was not entitled by virtue of his status at common law or the provisions of an existent treaty to exercise a right which was personal to the widow. The office of the Consul is no more extensive in that respect than that of a committee of an incompetent. (See Matter of Hills, 264 N. Y. 349, 353; Matter of Brown, 212 App. Div. 677, 679.) Present — Hagarty, Johnston, Adel, Taylor and Close, JJ. [177 Misc. 384.]
