[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Probate Court Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: Estate of [Deceased Person's Full Name], Docket No. [Estate Docket Number] Dear Honorable [Judge's Last Name] or To Whom It May Concern, I, as the executor/administrator of the estate of the late [Deceased Person's Full Name], hereby notify the probate court of the closure of the estate with no distribution to heirs. I have diligently fulfilled my duties as the executor/administrator and have followed the appropriate legal procedures as required by the Vermont Probate Code. This includes notifying creditors, paying valid claims and taxes, and accounting for all assets and liabilities of the estate. Upon my review of the inventory of the estate, it has been determined that there are no remaining assets or funds available for distribution to the heirs. The estate's assets, after satisfying all liabilities, have been exhausted and there are no remaining funds to be distributed. The estate assets were disbursed as follows: 1. Payment of Funeral and Burial Expenses: The funeral and burial expenses were settled out of the estate funds. A copy of the receipt is enclosed for your records. 2. Payment of Outstanding Debts and Taxes: All valid creditor claims and taxes owed by the deceased have been settled. Receipts and confirmations of payment are enclosed. 3. Administration Costs: The executor/administrator fees, legal fees, and other administrative expenses related to the handling of the estate have been paid from the estate funds. A detailed breakdown of these expenses is attached. 4. Distribution Sought and Reasons for No Distribution: As previously stated, there are no remaining assets, funds, or property to distribute among the heirs. The net value of the estate has been depleted fully by the necessary expenses listed above. Hence, I humbly request that the probate court acknowledge the closure of the estate with no distribution to the heirs, as there are no remaining assets available for allocation. I have attached all relevant documents, including receipts, confirmations, and a detailed accounting of the estate's financial transactions. Please let me know if any further documentation or information is needed for the closure of this estate. Your guidance and attention to this matter are sincerely appreciated. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Executor/Administrator of the Estate] [Contact Information] Enclosures: 1. Funeral and Burial Expense Receipt 2. Receipts for Outstanding Debts and Taxes 3. Detailed breakdown of Administration Costs.
