Notes of Decisions

For probate court to have subject matter jurisdiction over out-of-state decedent’s will executed in Oregon, there must be property in this state upon which probate may operate, and promissory note secured by trust deed was personal property having out-of-state situs, notwithstanding its physical presence in Oregon. West v. White, 92 Or App 401, 758 P2d 424 (1988), aff’d307 Or 296, 766 P2d 383 (1988)
