    Bergen County Orphans Court.
    IN THE MATTER OF PROVING THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF HOWARD A. SMITH, Jr., DECEASED.
    Decided March 6, 1944.
    For the petitioner, Carlo D. Celia.
    
   Delmar, J.

It is well settled in this state that the Orphans Court has no original jurisdiction over the probate of wills excepting in cases arising under R. S. 3 :2-22; N. J. S. A. 3:2-22, which statute is not applicable in the case at bar because there has been no adjudication of the surrogate that any doubts arise -on the face of the will, no caveat has been put in against proving the alleged will, nor is there any adjudication by the surrogate that any dispute has arisen respecting the existence of such will. See Straub’s Case, 49 N. J. Eq. 264; 24 Atl. Rep. 569; Murray v. Lynch, 64 N. J. Eq. 290; 51 Atl. Rep. 713; In re Bolles, 115 N. J. Eq. 300; 170 Atl. Rep. 658; In re Simson's Estate, 123 N. J. Eq. 388; 196 Atl. Rep. 451.

The proceedings of the Bergen County Orphans Court are therefore dismissed.
