Petition For Intestate Administration {075P}

Form 075P - PETITION FOR INTESTATE ADMINISTRATION. This form is filed in the Chancery Court of Hamilton County, Tennessee, Probate Division when someone dies without a valid will (intestate). This petition is used by a relative or interested party (the petitioner) to request that the court open a probate estate and appoint a personal representative to manage and distribute the decedent’s assets according to Tennessee intestacy laws. The form includes essential details such as the petitioner’s relationship to the deceased, the date and place of death, and the last known residence of the decedent. It identifies all known heirs, including any who may be minors or under a disability, and discloses whether a conservatorship or guardianship is in place. The petition also outlines the estimated value of the estate’s assets—both probate and non-probate—and declares whether the estate qualifies for administration under the Small Estates Act. Additional declarations are made about any ongoing businesses the decedent owned, the petitioner’s criminal history, and whether the decedent was enrolled in TennCare, which may trigger further notice requirements. The petitioner also requests the court’s guidance on matters such as waiving notice to creditors, filing of inventory, and TennCare notifications. If approved, the court will issue letters of administration authorizing the personal representative to act on behalf of the estate. www.FormsWorkflow.com
