Petition For Determination Of Heirship {PC 902}

PETITION FOR DETERMINATION OF HEIRSHIP. This form is used in Missouri probate court to request a legal determination of the rightful heirs of a deceased person's estate. It is typically filed when the decedent did not leave a will (or if no will has been presented for probate) and no formal probate proceedings have been initiated. The petition outlines the decedent's personal information, the value of the estate, and the identities of the heirs. It includes attachments (Exhibit A and Exhibit B) listing the decedent's assets and the heirs or potential heirs, as well as any persons claiming an interest through those heirs. The petitioner requests that the court officially identify the heirs and authorize the transfer of assets to them according to Missouri law. The petition is typically filed by an interested party (such as a family member or other person claiming an interest in the estate), and the court will use the petition to make a ruling on the heirs and the distribution of the estate. www.FormsWorkflow.com
