196 S.W.2d 607 | Ky. Ct. App. | 1946
Affirming.
Matt Haden Moise, Sr., died May 6, 1942. His will was probated May 19, 1942, on which date Fidelity Columbia Trust Company, now Citizens Fidelity Bank Trust Company, qualified as executor of the will. On August 20, 1942, W. L. Lyons
Company filed a claim with the executor against the estate, which, after much litigation, finally was allowed in full by the Master Commissioner and confirmed by the chancellor, whose judgment has been affirmed in an opinion rendered on this date. Fidelity Columbia Trust Co., Ex'r, etc., v. Lyons, etc.,
Cases are cited in support of this contention, notably Smither v. Smither's Ex'r,
In other cases wherein Statutes limit the time in which acts may be done, we have held that the Court may not extend such time, unless application therefor shall have been made before expiration of the time allowed by the Statutes. Bullitt County v. Galion Iron Works Mfg. Co. et al.,
The judgment is affirmed. *846
