This is the third time that a controversy surrounding the Intestate Estate of S.B. Nagbe, Sr., has come before the Supreme Court. The first time the Supreme Court was called upon to resolve disagreements arising from the Intestate Estate of S.B. Nagbe, Sr., was in 1982, in the case, In Re: The Intestate Estate of Nagbe v. Nagbe, 30LLR 278 (1982).

This appeal is predicated upon a ruling of our distinguished colleague, Mr. Justice Joseph N. Nagbe denying the petition for a writ of certiorari prayed for by the Management of Firestone Liberia, Inc., the appellant.
