Terms Used In Michigan Laws 700.3305

  • Application: means a written request to the probate register for an order of informal probate or informal appointment under part 3 of article III. See Michigan Laws 700.1103
  • Informal proceedings: means proceedings for probate of a will or appointment of a personal representative conducted by the probate register without notice to interested persons. See Michigan Laws 700.1105
  • Probate: Proving a will
  • State: means a state of the United States, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or a territory or insular possession subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. See Michigan Laws 700.1107
   If the register is not satisfied that a will is entitled to be probated in informal proceedings because of failure to meet the requirements of section 3303 or 3304 or for another reason, the register may deny the application. A register’s denial of informal probate is not an adjudication and does not preclude formal probate proceedings. If the application is denied, the register shall clearly state the reason for denial.
