[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Probate Judge's Name] [Probate Court Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Petition to Close Estate and Other Relief Dear Honorable [Probate Judge's Name], I, [Your Full Name], am I writing this letter to submit my formal Petition to Close Estate and Request for Other Relief pertaining to the estate of [Deceased Person's Full Name]. I am the duly appointed Personal Representative of the estate and have diligently fulfilled my duties and responsibilities in administering the estate. In accordance with the laws of the State of Alabama and the requirements outlined in Title 43 of the Code of Alabama, I hereby humbly request the court's approval for the closure of the estate. The purpose of this petition is to finalize the administration process and distribute the remaining assets among the rightful beneficiaries. I would like to bring to your attention that the estate administration was initiated on [Date] upon the death of [Deceased Person's Name]. Since then, I have successfully completed all necessary tasks, including inventorying and appraising the estate's assets, paying off valid debts and taxes, and resolving all outstanding claims and liabilities. To ensure transparency and adherence to legal processes, I have attached a detailed final accounting of the estate's assets, liabilities, and expenses. This includes a comprehensive list of all beneficiaries, along with their respective shares for distribution. I kindly request the court's review and approval of this accounting to proceed with the distribution process. In addition to the estate closure, I seek the court's endorsement for other relief, as detailed below: 1. Waiver of Final Accounting Hearing: I request the court's permission to waive the requirement for a final accounting hearing. Given the exhaustive and accurate financial records provided, I believe this would be a reasonable request for the efficient administration of the estate. 2. Authorization to Distribute Remaining Assets: Upon the court's acceptance of the final accounting, I request the court's order to distribute the remaining assets to the beneficiaries as specified in the accounting statement. This will allow for the expeditious resolution of the estate and provide rightful beneficiaries with their inherited property in a timely manner. 3. Discharge of Personal Representative: Having concluded all essential tasks entrusted to me, I request that the court issue a discharge order, absolving me of any further responsibilities and liabilities associated with this estate. The discharge will acknowledge my diligent efforts and reaffirm that I have fulfilled my duties faithfully and in compliance with the law. Enclosed with this letter, you will find the following documents as supporting evidence and to facilitate the petition process: 1. Final Accounting: A comprehensive statement detailing the estate's assets, liabilities, expenses, and proposed distribution to beneficiaries. 2. Death Certificate: Proof of the deceased's passing. 3. Receipts and Financial Documents: A collection of invoices, receipts, and financial statements pertaining to the administration of the estate. 4. Any other documents deemed necessary for the court's review. I kindly request that a hearing be scheduled to review this petition and discuss any matters related to the estate's closure and other relief sought. I am available at your convenience to answer any questions or provide further clarification. Your careful consideration and prompt response to this matter will be greatly appreciated. I trust that the court's ruling will align with the best interests of the beneficiaries and ensure a fair resolution of this estate's administration. Thank you for your attention to this important matter. Respectfully, [Your Full Name] [Your Title/Position] [Signature]
