The Illinois Petition To Terminate Independent Administration (Instructions) is a document that is used when a probate estate is being administered by an independent administrator. This document outlines the steps to be taken in order to terminate the independent administration and close the probate estate. Generally, the petition must be filed in the county where the probate estate is located, and it must state the reasons for terminating the independent administration. Generally, the reasons for terminating the independent administration can include the completion of the estate administration, the death of the independent administrator, or the independent administrator’s inability to continue to effectively administer the estate. The Illinois Petition To Terminate Independent Administration (Instructions) can be broken down into two different types: Petition to Terminate Independent Administration of an Estate and Petition to Terminate Independent Administration of a Trust. The Petition to Terminate Independent Administration of an Estate is used when terminating an independent administrator of an estate, while the Petition to Terminate Independent Administration of a Trust is used when terminating an independent administrator of a trust. Both petitions require the same basic information and steps, such as the identification of the independent administrator, the reasons for termination, and the filing of the petition in the county in which the probate estate is located.
