[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Probate Court Clerk's Name] [Allegheny County Probate Court] [Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Re: Estate of [Deceased's Full Legal Name], Deceased Probate Case Number: [Probate Case Number] Dear [Probate Court Clerk's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to request the closing of the estate of my [relationship to deceased], [Deceased's Full Legal Name], who passed away on [Date of Death]. The purpose of this letter is to inform the court that the estate has reached a state where no distribution is necessary. I, [Your Full Legal Name], serve as the Executor/Executrix of the estate. As Executor/Executrix, I have diligently fulfilled my duties as required by law and the Probate Court. A thorough inventory of the deceased's assets and debts was completed, and all valid claims against the estate have been addressed and paid in full. The estate's financial affairs have been appropriately managed, including the collection of all outstanding debts, the reconciliation of bank accounts, the payment of taxes, and the settlement of outstanding bills. I have enclosed a final accounting statement with this letter, detailing the estate's assets, liabilities, and financial transactions during the probate process. The assets under the estate's control have been appropriately liquidated, with the proceeds used to satisfy all outstanding obligations, including funeral expenses, medical bills, and outstanding taxes. The remaining balance, if any, has been deposited into an appropriate account, and upon approval from the court, will be distributed to the rightful beneficiaries in accordance with the deceased's last will and testament. Despite my best efforts to locate all potential heirs, it appears that no living or additional eligible beneficiaries can be identified. Therefore, the estate will remain undistributed until further notice or until any additional claims or beneficiaries come forward. I kindly request that you review the enclosed final accounting statement and consider this letter as a formal request for the closure of the estate. I understand that the court may require additional documents or information. Please feel free to contact me at [Your Phone Number] or [Your Email Address] if you require any further details or documentation. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the court will review the provided information and take the necessary steps to conclude this estate's administration. I appreciate all the assistance and guidance I have received throughout this probate process. Yours sincerely, [Your Full Legal Name] [Executor/Executrix of the Estate of [Deceased's Full Legal Name]]
