Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court
Decided June 15, 1966PublishedCited by 38 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtKibe, J.
The issues later to be stated and considered in the two cases arise from decrees entered in the Middlesex Probate Court in the course of litigation concerning the estate of Paul F. Bowser. The cases were heard and decided by different judges. Thomas J. Colbert is executor under the will of Bowser. In case No. 6716, which was heard and decided first, Patrick J. Hennessey and Elias M. Loew appeal from the decree entered by the judge on Colbert’s petition for instructions. In case No. 6715, Loew appeals from a decree dismissing his petition for the removal of Thomas J. Colbert as executor.
