Description

Decree reversed, with costs to all parties filing briefs, payable out of the estate; and matter remitted to the Surrogate's Court for further proceedings consistent herewith. The learned Surrogate decided the issues presented by the petition, accounts and objections without taking testimony or receiving other proof. Based upon an agreement and consent, executed by all the legatees other than the objectant, substantially to the effect that all assets of the estate should be considered as principal, the Surrogate disposed of the objections that petitioner had failed to allocate receipts and disbursements between principal and income. Under the circumstances disclosed by this record, we are of the opinion that such a disposition was proper and that no substantial rights of the objectant, who is entitled to one fifth of the residuary estate, were prejudiced thereby, provided that petitioner shall also stipulate: (a) to waive one fifth of the additional principal commissions to which he may be entitled under section 285-a of the Surrogate's Court Act, and (b) to add to the objectant's share of the estate an amount equal to one fifth of such principal commissions. However, other issues raised by the objections, including those respecting petitioner's alleged failure to include specific items as assets of the estate (see, e.g., amended objections 5, 6, 7 and 9), may not be determined without the taking of testimony or the submission of other evidence. We also are unable, from the present record, to determine whether petitioner has accounted for the increase in the estate shown by the intermediate accounting settled in 1951. Since a new decree must be entered, we call attention to the fact that the decree appealed from does not contain a summary of the account as settled, or a reference to such a summary, as required by section 274 of the Surrogate's Court Act.
