A theorem concerning M-summands in dual spaces is used to prove that certain known M-ideals are not M-summands. In some cases where this information was already known, our procedure greatly simplifies the earlier proofs. Finally, we give a condition to determine which M-ideals in dual spaces are M-summands and which are not.
