OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

Editor's notes.

- In light of the similarity of the statutory provisions, opinions under former Code 1933, § 113-601, are included in the annotations for this Code section.

Probate in common form may be accomplished without notice to anyone but such probate and record is not conclusive upon anyone interested in the estate adversely to the will. 1954-56 Op. Att'y Gen. p. 916 (decided under former Code 1933, § 113-601).
