Probate Notes:

Appearances required. 

Attorneys for the Personal Representative need not submit such a lengthy status update in the future, as the update submitted contained information not statutorily necessary to inform the Court of the status of administration. (See Prob. Code, §12201(a).)  Please use Local Form SC-6031 for all future Reports of Status of Administration to cut down on client-paid attorney’s fees and expenditure of Court resources.

Parties must come prepared to justify why the “court [should] determine[] that continuation of administration is in the best interests of the estate or of interested persons.” (Prob. Code, §12201(c)(1).)

Appearances:

The court is open to the public for court business. The court is also conducting hearings via Zoom videoconference.
