<p class="yiv5228524045MsoPlainText">Recent probate filing was rejected with a note that a GAL needed to be appointed because there were minor beneficiaries. Great grandmother was giving $1,000 to each of nine great grandchildren. Appointment of a GAL seems to be a bit
overkill. I am thinking a revised petition and order requiring distribution to UTMA accounts may be a more efficient alternative. Any other recommendations?</p>
