[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Probate Court Name] [Probate Court Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: Closure of Estate — Expiration of Probating Claims Dear [Probate Court Clerk/Judge's Name], I am writing to inform the court about the impending closure of the estate of [Deceased's Full Name], who passed away on [Date of Death]. As the personal representative of the estate, I have successfully completed the probate process, thereby satisfying all legal requirements and settling all outstanding claims to the best of my knowledge. Through diligent efforts, I have adhered to the laws and regulations of Kansas Probate Code throughout the administration of the estate, ensuring that the deceased's assets were appropriately valued, debts were paid, and beneficiaries or heirs were identified and duly informed. According to the Kansas Probate Code Section [relevant section number], all claims against an estate must be probated within one year from the date of the decedent's death. Given that the aforementioned deadline has expired, and considering that no additional claims have been received or filed during this period, it is my understanding that the estate is now eligible for closure. In support of this motion for closure, I have enclosed the following documents: 1. Final Inventory and Appeasement: This comprehensive document provides an itemized list of all assets of the estate, including their corresponding values, as per the instructions of the Kansas Probate Code. 2. Final Account and Report: This financial statement outlines all transactions and distributions made during the probate process, including payments to creditors, taxes, legal fees, and disbursements to beneficiaries or heirs. 3. Affidavit of Non-Claims: By submitting this form, I attest that to the best of my knowledge, no further claims exist against the estate. All known creditors have been notified and provided with a reasonable opportunity to file their claims within the statutory period. 4. Receipts and Discharges: These documents serve as proof of payment to creditors and beneficiaries, ensuring compliance with the Kansas Probate Code. 5. Any other relevant supporting documents: If there are any specific documents required by the probate court, please let me know, and I will promptly provide them. Therefore, based on the completion of probate procedures, the absence of any pending claims, and in accordance with the provisions of the Kansas Probate Code, I respectfully request the court's approval for the closure of the estate of [Deceased's Full Name]. I kindly ask that you issue the final decree of distribution, officially closing the estate. If the court requires any additional information or documentation, please contact me within the next ten (10) business days. Thank you for your attention and cooperation throughout this process. Your guidance and support have been instrumental in facilitating the administration of this estate. I look forward to your favorable response and the timely closure of this matter. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Personal Representative of the Estate] [Contact Information]
