<div dir="ltr">Yes, you just prepare and file a petition to admit found will to probate, get letters testamentary, and unfortunately wait four months for the will to become final. It stinks that it throws off your timeline, but you cannot just sit on the will. If the beneficiaries are the same under the will and you're willing to risk it, you could theoretically make partial distributions while you wait out the four months...? Kinda depends on the circumstances. I suppose you could also file a petition for instruction and see if the court will give you any lee-weigh. Whatever you do, I'd get a court order for cover. </div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Wed, Nov 28, 2018 at 1:09 PM Brent Williams-Ruth <<a href="mailto:brent@bwrconsults.com">brent@bwrconsults.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Good Afternoon List - </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">I have a probate that has been moving along as an intestate - two surviving siblings are splitting everything.
