Syllabus
<p>Estate of $1500—Estimating Value by Excluding Homestead.— Where a statutory homestead from community property has been set apart in probate to the widow, its value is not considered in determining whether the estate exceeds $1500. Hence, the petition of the widow to assign to her personal property valued at $500 should be granted, although the homestead is valued at over $3,000.</p> <p>Estate of $1500.—The Publication of Notice to Creditors is unnecessary where the court assigns the whole estate to the widow under section 1469 of the Code of Civil Procedure.</p>
