Tentative Ruling

Probate Notes:

The Court received Notice of Conservatee’s Death (Form GC-399) on February 13, 2025. 

The death of a conservatee terminates the conservatorship by operation of law.  (Prob. Code, § 1860, subd. (a).)  However, 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.)  Therefore, it is recommended the Court order the conservator to petition the court for an order permitting the guardian or conservator to liquidate the decedent’s estate, in accordance with the procedure set forth in Probate Code section 2631 et seq.

Appearances:

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