P1398 In awarding fees to an executor's attorney, the Probate Court's exclusion of some of the requested fees upon finding they were for services rendered to the client personally, rather than in her capacity as executor, did not result in issue preclusion (i.e., collateral estoppel) to prevent the attorney from bringing a subsequent quantum meruit action against the client for the fees that had been excluded.CitationMILLER v CAMPBELL, WARBURTON... (Probate Fees) 162 CA4 1331 [See: Estate of Kelleher 205 C 757]
