Application For Summary Estate Administration {5.0A}

SCPC FORM 5.0A - APPLICATION FOR SUMMARY ESTATE ADMINISTRATION. This form is used in the Probate Court of Stark County, Ohio, for simplified estate administration when the decedent’s estate is small, typically valued under $2,000. This form is typically filed when the decedent has minimal assets that are intended to cover funeral expenses, and there are no complex estate matters requiring full administration. The applicant must state the decedent's death date and residence, confirm payment or responsibility for funeral expenses, and provide documentation verifying the value and description of any assets to be transferred. If applicable, the applicant also needs to mention if the decedent was a Medicaid recipient, as the state may have a claim for recovery. The form allows for the transfer of assets directly to the person(s) entitled to them, usually to cover funeral expenses. The application is granted if the court finds that the estate meets the requirements for summary administration, allowing for a simplified transfer of assets without going through the full probate process. www.FormsWorkflow.com
