12. 25PR0305 ESTATE OF LINDA ABRAHAMSON PETITION TO DETERMINE SUCCESSION TO REAL PROPERTY

Decedent died on December 25, 2019. This Petition is filed by Myrna Lunceford and Deborah Land, who are presumably decedent’s siblings, pursuant to Probate Code § 13150 et seq. That statute allows the Court to determine succession to real property outside of probate for real property that is valued at less than $166,250 for a decedent who died prior to April 1, 2022. The Petition indicates that the decedent died intestate with no surviving parents, children or spouse, and that no probate was opened for the estate.

The matter was heard on December 29, 2025, but there were no appearances. The Court continued the matter to allow the Petitioners an opportunity to conform the Petition to the requirements of Probate Code § 13152. At the hearing on March 16, 2026, counsel for Petitioners appeared and the Court continued the matter. The court issued an ex parte minute order directing an appraisal by a probate referee. The appraisal was filed with the court on June 17, 2026. The net value of the property per the appraisal is $252,000.
