Holding
The court held that a superior court sitting in probate lacks statutory jurisdiction to remove a trustee of a testamentary charitable trust after the estate's final distribution, as such power is not expressly or impliedly granted by the Probate Code and resides exclusively in the court's general equity jurisdiction.
