In Re Wilkie's Estate

The dispute involved in this appeal is over the sufficiency of the service of notice of appeal from probate court to circuit court. Appellants Essie I. Camp and Flossie O. Vollendorf, who are the only heirs and legatees of deceased, filed their motion in circuit court to dismiss the appeal from probate court. The circuit judge held the service of notice of appeal sufficient and denied the motion to dismiss the appeal. From the order of the circuit judge denying their motion to dismiss, appellants take their appeal to this court in the nature of certiorari and mandamus.
