Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Dear [Recipient's Name], I am writing to bring a formal complaint to the attention of the probate court regarding the probate of the will in question. I am seeking to appoint co-executrixes and request the issuance of letters testamentary for [deceased person's name]. As per the applicable laws of Rhode Island, the probate process is overseen by the probate court in the county where the deceased person resided at the time of their passing. I strongly believe that the will of [deceased person's name] has not been properly handled, and I have grounds to contest the current executor's appointment and request the appointment of co-executrixes. The will in question, dated [date], designates [current executor's name] as the sole executor. However, I believe that his/her actions during the probate process contradict and violate the intentions and wishes of the deceased as stated in the will. Hence, I am requesting the court's intervention to protect the interests of the estate and all beneficiaries. Key issues that I would like to address include: 1. Breach of fiduciary duty: I believe that the current executor has breached their fiduciary duty by failing to fulfill their responsibilities, mismanaging estate assets, or engaging in financial misconduct. 2. Conflict of interest: I have reason to suspect that the current executor may not act impartially and could have personal interests that are in conflict with the proper administration of the estate. 3. Failure to provide proper accounting: I contend that the current executor has failed to provide a clear and accurate accounting of the assets, debts, and expenses related to the estate. 4. Testator's intentions not being respected: I firmly believe that the current executor has not acted in accordance with the testator's intentions as specified in the will, leading to potential harm to the interests of the beneficiaries. In light of the aforementioned issues, I request the court to consider appointing co-executrixes to oversee the administration of the estate. This would ensure a fair and unbiased distribution of the assets, as well as a diligent collection and preservation of all estate assets. Furthermore, I kindly request the court to issue letters testamentary to the appointed co-executrixes, granting them the authority to act on behalf of the estate. With the issuance of these letters, they will have the legal power to handle all matters related to the estate, including inventorying assets, collecting debts, paying off liabilities, filing tax returns, and distributing the remaining assets to the beneficiaries. I believe that by addressing these concerns and taking appropriate action, the probate court can rectify the current mismanagement and protect the interests of all parties involved. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a fair resolution. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Your Phone Number] [Your Email Address]
