Mark Robert Engel and Daniel Michael Engel v. Bonita Engel Amonett and Marion Thomas Whitman

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama affirmed the probate court's decision to disqualify Mark and Daniel Engel from serving as co-executors of their mother's estate and to appoint a neutral administrator. The Court held that the probate court's orders and the evidence showed disqualification based on improvidence or want of understanding, rather than merely on administrative efficiency, and that the evidence reasonably supported that determination.
