- High Court
The Court dismissed the removal application because the evidence did not establish misconduct, illegitimate hostility or real risk that the administrators' continuation would prevent proper execution of the estate; the deceased's choice of executors must be respected; the 'expedience' threshold was not met and any unfounded conduct can be addressed by costs orders at the substantive hearing.
