Waiver Of Service To Surviving Spouse Of The Citation To Elect (Stark) {8.6}

FORM 8.6 - WAIVER OF SERVICE TO SURVIVING SPOUSE OF THE CITATION TO ELECT. This form is used in the Stark County Probate Court to document that the surviving spouse of a deceased person is formally waiving the legal requirement to be served with a citation notifying them of their right to make certain elections under Ohio Revised Code § 2106.01(A). By signing this form, the surviving spouse affirms that they are at least 18 years old, not under any legal disability, and that they have received Standard Probate Form 8.3, which outlines their general rights. The form also confirms that the spouse understands these rights must generally be exercised within five months from the date the estate's administrator or executor is appointed. If they fail to act within that time frame, it is legally presumed that they have waived those rights, and the opportunity to exercise them is forfeited. www.FormsWorkflow.com
