State Ex Rel. Joyce v. Farr

Decided November 8, 1940PublishedCited by 16 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtMaRtin, J.
We will not now discuss or decide the question of the jurisdiction of the county court of Eau Claire county to probate the estate of the deceased Mary Cousins Joyce. That issue is raised on the petitioner’s plea in abatement which was filed in the county court of Eau Claire county on January 29, 1939, and which has not yet been decided by that court.
The law is well settled in this state that a writ of prohibition will not be issued where there is an adequate remedy by appeal or otherwise. State ex rel. Meggett v. O’Neill, 104 Wis. 227, 80 N. W. 447; State ex rel. Tewalt v. Pollard, 112 Wis.…
