Given (1) objective and longstanding hostility that would impede cooperative co-administration and increase cost and delay; (2) the Defendant's demonstrated lack of diligence in preserving and promptly administering estate assets (notably leaving the Deceased's one-third interest in Po Yip property non-income producing for 12 years and delays in probate); and (3) the Plaintiff's suitability as majority beneficiary and capable adult, it was necessary and convenient under s.36 to pass over the Defendant and appoint the Plaintiff as sole administrator with the Will annexed.
