In the Matter of the Estate of Marcel J. Rougeron, Jules J. Rougeron, Appellant Jeanne A. Rougeron

Summary

The Court of Appeals affirmed the New York Surrogate's probate decree and dismissed the appeal as non‑final on the probate vacatur issue, holding that the Surrogate had proper jurisdiction over the estate and that the Swiss‑U.S. treaty does not deprive New York courts of authority; the dissent argued the Swiss assets should be returned to Switzerland.
