1DissentJustice Moore

In this action the judgment of the trial court was, that the revocable inter vivos transfer attempted by the *103trust instrument before us, in its cumulative effect, was a testamentary disposition of property and accordingly invalid for the reason that it was not executed with the formalities required by law.

It is my opinion that the judgment of the trial court should be affirmed upon authority of the following decisions of this court: Barnes, et al. v. Spangler, 93 Colo. 254, 25 P. (2d) 732; Dunham v. Armitage, Adm’r., 97 Colo. 216, 48 P. (2d) 797; Smith, et al. v. Simmons, Adm’r., 99 Colo.…
