78.37 Disputes as to standing

(cf former Part 78, rule 37A)

(2) If one party (the
"first party" ) has applied for the grant of administration and another party (the
"second party" ) alleges that the first party is not entitled to do so, the second party's pleadings must allege facts that, if proved, would show that the second party is entitled to apply for such a grant.
