OPALA, V.C.J.
{1 The certiorari petition presents two dispositive issues for this court's resolution:
Was the Lincoln County District Court correct in concluding that the Craig County court's probate decree is facially void insofar as it distributes the mother's mineral interest? and [2] Did the former court err in quieting the brothers' title to the mineral interest? We answer both questions in the affirmative.
