Opinion

By the Court :

We are of opinion that the answer of the defendants, in so far as it denies that there had been a final settlement of the accounts of Bateman, and denies that a final decree had been entered in the Probate Court upon such settlement, was sufficient in form and substance to defeat a motion for judgment in favor of the plaintiff on the pleadings.

Judgment reversed, and cause remanded for a new trial. Remittitur forthwith.
