In Re Estate of Hutchins
Texas Court of Appeals, 13th District
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
BISSETT, Justice (Assigned).
This is an appeal by writ of error to set aside the judgment of a probate court which admitted to probate the purported last will and testament of William Merritt Hutchins, who died on January 19, 1991. Two questions are presented for determination: First, whether this Court has jurisdiction of the appeal, second, if so, whether the will was executed in accordance with § 88(b)(1), (2) and § 59 of the Texas Probate Code 2 (Vernon 1980). We answer the first question in the affirmative and the second in the negative. We reverse the probate court’s judgment.
