HYMAN KAUFMAN et als. vs. SARAH LISS (Estate of Sam Liss).

304 Mass. 678

November 8, 1939

Decree affirmed. This is an appeal from a decree of the Probate Court in the matter of the alleged will of Sam Liss, late of Salem, denying a motion by the contestants for the framing of issues for trial by jury. Upon consideration of the statements of expected evidence -- which need not be recited -- in the light of the established principles of law governing the framing of such issues and review on appeal after action of the Probate Court on motions for the framing of such issues -- which have been frequently stated and need not be restated -- we conclude that there was no error in the denial of this motion. See Hannon v. Gorman, 296 Mass. 437 .
