Ex Parte Order For Release Of The Remains Of A Decendent {PRO 018}

SCLAC PRO 018 - EX PARTE; ORDER FOR RELEASE OF REMAINS OF A DECEDENT. This is a Los Angeles County Superior Court probate form used to authorize a petitioner to claim and arrange for the final disposition of a decedent’s remains. Issued after an ex parte petition and court review, this order confirms that required notices have been addressed and that the petitioner is the appropriate person to take responsibility—typically because no closer relative has come forward or eligible relatives have consented. The form applies when the decedent was a resident of Los Angeles County or their remains are located there. This order authorizes the release of the remains of a decedent and does not grant any authority to collect or marshall the property of a decedent. For Mandatory Use. Health & Safety Code § 7100, 7105. www.FormsWorkflow.com
