A Waiver of Notice is a useful tool when administering a probate procedure. In a typical probate procedure, several parties are required to receive notice in order for a hearing to be properly conducted. Failure to give notice can result in a probate hearing being continued (delayed) until proper notice is given.
Normally, notice is required to be served to interested parties at least 15 days prior to the hearing date. Probate hearings that require notice include:
- Initial Petition for Probate
- Petition for Proposed Actions in IAEA is not given
- Inventory & Appraisal
- Accounting of Estate
- Petition for Final Distribution and several others.
