The Court will not appoint a curator ad litem to a minor who does not enter appearance.
This was a petition for the removal of a trustee and the appointment of a factor on a trust estate. No answers were lodged or appearance made for the trustee, and in respect thereof the prayer was granted. The counsel for the petitioner proposed that before disposing of the petition a curator ad litem should be appointed to a minor, to whom the petition had been intimated, but who did not appear. The Court refused to make the appointment because the minor did not appear, although he might have done so.
