Order Of Summary Administration {E-904M}

AOC-E-904M - ORDER OF SUMMARY ADMINISTRATION. This form is used in North Carolina probate proceedings to authorize simplified estate administration when statutory requirements are met under G.S. Chapter 28A, Article 28. Issued by the Clerk of Superior Court, this order confirms that the petitioner—often a surviving spouse—is entitled to collect, manage, and distribute the decedent’s assets without full estate administration. As shown on page 1, the order grants authority over assets such as bank accounts, wages, vehicles, securities, and real property, while also assigning responsibility for the decedent’s debts and taxes up to the value received. It also protects third parties who transfer property under the order from further liability. G.S. 28A-28-1 et. seq. www.FormsWorkflow.com
