Tentative Ruling

Probate Notes:

The Court received Notice of Conservatee’s Death (Form GC-399) on February 9, 2026.  The death of a conservatee terminates the conservatorship of the person and estate by operation of law (Prob. Code, § 1860, subd. (a)), but the conservator of the estate remains responsible for the custody and conservation of the estate until it is either delivered to the personal representative of the conservatee-decedent's estate, or some other lawful disposition is made. (Prob. Code, §§1860, 2467.)

Upon the death of a conservatee, a final accounting of the conservatee’s estate must be submitted. (Prob. Code, § 2620(b); CRC, Rule 7.1052(c).) The death of the conservatee “does not cause the court to lose jurisdiction of the proceeding for the purpose of settling the accounts of the [] conservator or for any other purpose incident to the enforcement of the judgments and orders of the court upon such accounts or upon the termination of the relationship.” (Prob. Code, § 2630.)
