Confirmation of Inventory and Appraisal; Status of Administration
CASE NUMBER: 24PB-0032564 This matter is on calendar for confirmation of filing the Inventory and Appraisal and Status of Administration. The Second Partial and Final Inventory and Appraisal filed on January 29, 2026, is accepted by the Court, despite that item 5 and the statement about the bond are incomplete. Item 5 was properly addressed on the previous Inventory and Appraisal, no additional real property has been identified, and the requirement of a bond has been waived, therefore the Court will overlook the defects.
No Petition for Final Distribution has been filed. A properly noticed Status Report has been filed stating that additional time is needed before the estate administration can be finalized. The matter is continued to Monday, August 24, 2026, at 2:30 p.m. in Department 44 for Status of Administration. If a Petition for Final Distribution cannot be filed prior to the next hearing, the Court ORDERS the Personal Representative to timely file and serve a Status Report with proper Notice of Hearing in compliance with Probate Code Section 12200 et seq.
Failure to do so may result in the issuance of an Order to Show Cause Re: Monetary Sanctions of $250.00 for failure to timely close the estate administration and failure to comply with the Court’s order. If a properly noticed Status Report or Petition for Final Distribution is noticed for a different date, the Court will vacate the August 24, 2026, date. No appearance is necessary on today’s calendar.
