Excerpt from New Probate Law and Practice, Vol. 1 of 3: With Annotations and Forms for Use in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming Since the first edition of this work was written, nearly twelve years ago, a great many statutory changes in probate law have been made and many important law making decisions on probate law have been rendered, but these important changes and decisions are scattered through the many volumes of session laws, compiled stat utes, and law reports, regardless of easy accessibility. So numerous and important have been these statutory changes and law-making decisions that the author found, during the progress of the work, that a new, revised, and enlarged edition was necessary to present the law prop erly, as it is today, giving a synopsis of the points covered by the multitude of late decisions.
