On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.11 of the Rules,
order affirmed, with costs, and certified question not answered
upon the ground that it is unnecessary.  When viewed in its
entirety, the testimony from the attesting witness is
insufficient to create a triable issue of fact as to whether
decedent's will was duly executed.  Chief Judge Lippman and
Judges Ciparick, Graffeo, Read, Smith, Pigott and Jones concur.
Decided February 22, 2011
