Description
Philip Billings, former executor of the estate of Perry Bove, filed a petition in the Probate Court for the District of Rutland for the recommittal of the commissioners report in that estate. Louis Ricci, as a party interested in the estate, filed a petition moving for the disqualification of George F. Jones, the Judge of that probate district to determine the issues raised by the petition of Billings. The grounds for disqualification as set forth are substantially as follows: 1. That Billings was a student and employee in the office of Jones & Jones and that the Judge was a member of that firm. 2. That the will of Perry Bove was drawn in that office and a fee received for the service rendered. 3. That in the will Billings was named its executor. 4. That a deed which has caused much litigation and controversy in the estate was drawn by Judge Jones and he was paid for his services in the matter. 5. That the Judge, as attorney, formed the Colonial Beverage Company and was an officer, director, and stockholder of the company; that this company has become an important issue in the estate. 6. "The said George F. Jones has already demonstrated his interest, favor and bias as against the interests of the said Louis Ricci." 7. That the Judge arbitrarily required Ricci to post a $10,000 bond before taking an appeal from a prior decision made in connection with this estate, (See Ricci v. Boves Estate, 116 Vt 335, 75 A.2d 682).
