I am writing to inform you about the closure of the estate of [Deceased's Name]. As the executor/administrator of the estate, I am pleased to hereby announce the expiration of the probating claims period. Delaware Probate Code section [relevant section number], requires that all claims against the estate be filed within a specified period. This period began on [start date] and expired on [end date]. Throughout this span, diligent efforts were made to locate and notify all potential claimants in accordance with the law. We have reviewed each claim thoroughly and ensured that all submitted claims have been properly considered. After careful evaluation and consultation with legal advisors, I confidently state that all legitimate debts and obligations of the Estate have been fully satisfied. Unfortunately, it is inevitable that certain claims, if any, were not submitted within the specified timeframe, resulting in their disqualification. For the sake of transparency and in compliance with the Delaware Probate Code, I have taken adequate measures to compile a comprehensive list of claims that were deemed inadmissible due to their late submission. In the interest of finalizing the probate process and winding up the estate's affairs, we request your approval so that we may proceed with closing the estate officially. Enclosed please find a full list of claims filed within the applicable timeframe, along with relevant supporting documentation and our resolution on each item. Simultaneously, a separate list is provided, outlining the claims received after the prescribed deadline. I kindly request that you review and acknowledge these documents accordingly. Upon your validation of the enclosed records, and your consent for closure of the estate, we will diligently undertake all necessary procedures to fulfill the closure process promptly. This includes distributing estate assets in accordance with the deceased's will, paying any remaining debts, and preparing final tax returns. Should you require any additional information or clarification regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at [phone number] or [email address]. I sincerely appreciate your cooperation and assistance throughout this probate process, making it possible to honor the wishes of the deceased and bring the estate to its rightful conclusion.
