Opinion
February, 1919.
Present — Clarke, P.J., Laughlin, Page, Shearn and Merrell, JJ. Order modified by reducing commissions to $307.21, and as so modified affirmed, with costs to respondent.
The decree should be modified by reducing the sum which the trustee is ordered to retain for commissions to which he is entitled on this accounting to the sum of $307.21. Having already received on the previous accounting the statutory commission of five per cent on the first $1,000 and two and one-half per cent on the next $10,000 he is entitled to only one per cent commission on the increase, namely, $37.80, instead of $119.50, as allowed by the decree. As thus modified, the decree is affirmed, with costs to the respondent.
