Case Type Decedent's Estate Hearing Date / Time Tue, 04/28/2026 - 09:00 Nature of Proceedings Petition for Probate and Letters Testamentary Tentative Ruling Probate Notes: Appearances required. The following is noted for the Court at the hearing: Amendment technically required. Petitioner admits the will is lost, but the petition does not so alleged. Thus Petitioner should technically file an amendment to the petition to allege a lost will. (CRC, Rule 7.3(4). [1]) This means the hearing should be continued to allow the amendment to be filed with sufficient time to re-serve that amendment. (CRC, Rule 7.53. [2]) [1] "Amendment to a pleading" means a pleading that modifies another pleading and alleges facts or requests relief materially different from the facts alleged or the relief requested in the modified pleading. An amendment to a pleading does not restate or supersede the modified pleading but must be read together with that pleading. [2] An amended pleading or an amendment to a pleading requires the same notice of hearing (including publication) as the pleading it amends. Appearances: The court is open to the public for court business. The court is also conducting hearings via Zoom videoconference. Meeting ID: 160 543 3416 Passcode: 5053334
