Alaska Order Starting Formal Probate and Appointing Personal Representative When There is a Will is a legal document that is used to initiate the probate process and appoint a personal representative when a deceased individual has left a will. It is filed with the court and serves as a notice to creditors, heirs, and other interested parties of the proceedings. There are two types of orders available: a limited order and a full order. A limited order authorizes the personal representative to take certain actions regarding the estate, such as settling claims against the estate. A full order authorizes the personal representative to administer the estate in full, including collecting and distributing assets, paying debts, and filing tax returns. The order will also list the duties of the personal representative, including providing notice to creditors, heirs, and others of the probate proceedings; filing an inventory of estate assets; obtaining appraisals of estate assets; and filing an accounting of expenses and distributions.
