Description
STEINERT, C.J. -- This is a proceeding, instituted in the probate court, wherein petitioner seeks to be relieved of liability for the accrued expense incident to the care and maintenance of an insane relative formerly confined in a state hospital. After a hearing on the merits, the court made findings of fact from which it concluded that petitioner should be relieved of personal responsibility for such expense, and thereupon entered judgment releasing petitioner from all obligation to make payment thereof; the judgment, however, impressed upon certain real estate then owned by petitioner a first and paramount lien in favor of the state for the payment of the accrued cost of such maintenance. From the adverse portion of such judgment, petitioner has appealed.
