In re Nakauchi Estate

Justice Taylor determines that more evidence is required “to justify” granting Nakauchi’s widow her infant children’s shares of her husband’s estate. (608) Nakauchi’s wife was at the time of the application intending to return to Japan with her children. Taylor wanted “something to indicate firm surety that the infants’ money will remain available for them on majority.” (608) The costs of the case were taken out of the estate. The option of providing the needed evidence and having a rehearing was presented.
