Probate Notes are a written review of a case prepared by the probate examiner prior to an upcoming hearing. The notes contain a brief summary of the case, including the names of the parties involved, the reason for the hearing, and the deficiencies if any. The examiner gives a recommendation or asks a question. The purpose is to make sure that everything has been handled properly and nothing is missing in the file. Probate notes are prepared anywhere from several weeks prior to hearing or as late as a day prior to a hearing. Probate notes might be reviewed and updated several times prior to a hearing.
To avoid having a hearing postponed and the case delayed, it’s important to review the probate notes, allowing enough time to correct any problems. The probate notes are public information and available on the court’s website. Learn more about California Probate by viewing all articles about probate here.
