<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12pt">Often checks trickling in are signs that there are outstanding assets, the underlying ownership that results in dividend or other income distributions. It is important to verify the source of each check before
closing the estate. I have had to re-open estates to address a few stock shares held on the books of a company where we had previously transferred the shares we knew about. Only the dividend checks clued us in that there were additional shares that needed
to be addressed. Current letters are necessary for such actions. Good to get estates closed, but rushing has risks.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
