Determine if the estate is truly closed. Review the probate file at the Superior Court of California in Orange County. Was an order entered that discharged the executor in charge of administering the estate? If the estate is still open, you can reopen the estates bank account and make the deposit.
An estate may be reopened to prevent a miscarriage of justice based on a showing that the evidence presented at the original hearing was incorrect, incomplete, or otherwise inadequate.
Most estates in California are closed within 9 to 18 months, but there are complications that may delay the process. Executors are encouraged to close the estate quickly to prevent legal issues and further expenses.
The Petition for Probate of Will and Letters Testamentary is requesting for the court to validate the Will and formally appoint the Executor. Once this is done, the court authorizes the Executor to oversee the process of distributing assets and property to beneficiaries per the instructions provided in the Will.
