Petition for Limited Orders {RW 1147}

RW1147 - PETITION FOR ADMINISTRATION LIMITED ORDERS. This form is used in the state of Maryland when an individual seeks specific, restricted authority from the Orphans’ Court or Register of Wills without opening a full estate. This form is typically filed when a person—often a nominated personal representative or someone with a legal interest in the estate—needs limited access for purposes such as locating the decedent’s assets or discovering the existence and location of a will. By selecting the Limited Orders option and completing Schedule C, the petitioner must explain why a limited order is necessary and specify the nature of their relationship to the estate. Importantly, this type of order does not authorize the transfer or distribution of any assets. It is strictly meant to facilitate the gathering of information that may be needed to decide whether to proceed with a formal probate process. The form also includes affirmations that the petitioner meets legal qualifications and acknowledges the limited scope of authority granted by the court. www.FormsWorkflow.com
