In re Estate of Forand

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District
Jan 27, 1966
182 So. 2d 278 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1966)

Opinion

No. 217.

January 27, 1966.

Appeal from the County Judge's Court, Broward County, Stewart F. LaMotte, Jr., J.

Delford P. Richey, Pompano Beach, for appellant.

James A. Weck, Pompano Beach, for appellee.


This is an appeal from an order of the County Judge's Court extending time to the executrix of the estate to file objections to a claim against it of some $7,000.00. The objections were timely filed in the office of the County Judge and on the attorney for the claimant, but not on the claimant. Section 733.18(2), F.S.A.

An order of the County Judge extending time within which to file objections to a claim is an interlocutory administrative order and is not final and affords no basis for an appeal. Section 5(3), Article V of the Constitution of Florida, F.S.A. The case of Smoak v. Graham, Fla. 1964, 167 So.2d 559, has not escaped our attention.

The appeal is dismissed.

ANDREWS, Acting C.J., and WALDEN, J., concur.
