Estate of Heldman CA2/7
William and John Heldman are the sons of William Joseph Heldman, who died in 2014. William appeals from probate court orders (1) overruling William’s demurrer to John’s third amended Probate Code section 850 petition; (2) denying William’s motion for a permanent injunction and order to show cause regarding contempt to enforce a partial settlement agreement between William and John; and (3) granting John’s motion to disqualify William’s counsel, Meir J. Westreich. We conclude the first two orders are nonappealable and dismiss the appeal as to those orders.
As to John’s disqualification motion, William contends on appeal substantial evidence does not support the probate court’s finding there was a substantial relationship between Westreich’s representation of John in a 1983 deposition involving real property William Joseph transferred to John and John’s allegation in this case that William Joseph transferred property to William.
