- rng Appntmnt Probate Held January 10, 2023 Applicant Lienne Twidwell appears with her attorney Jesse Garrison. Mrs. Twidwell's Application for Letters of Administration filed December 5, 2022 is taken up. Evidence is adduced. Court reviews the Application for Letters of Administration, and in accordance with Section 473.017 R.S.Mo, the Court finds that Decedent died intestate on October 27, 2022. The Court finds Decedent was domiciled in Mercer County, Missouri at the time of his death, and that the other listed heirs were mailed notice of today's hearing on December 19, 2022 by certified U.S. Mail. Ms. Garrison stated that only one of the notices was returned undeliverable, and she mailed the notice to the heir at an updated address and the notice was not returned. Ms. Garrison also received a call from one of the heirs who had some questions. No responses or filings by or from the heirs were received by the court. No other interested person appears or requests that today's hearing be postponed. No objections or opposition to the Application for Letters of Administration were filed with the court. Applicant files her Application as surviving spouse and requests appointment to serve as administrator of this estate and that independent administration be granted. Finding that everything is in order with the Application and requests therein, the Court grants Supervised Letters of Administration to applicant Lienne Twidwell and appoints her administrator of this estate. Since applicant is the surviving spouse, the value of the personal property is not known at this point in time, and the only assets known consists of real estate; applicant is allowed to serve without bond until the inventory is filed. Once an inventory is filed and the value of personal property is known, the court will set and require a bond as appropriate. The Court finds that applicant is a proper person to serve to administer the estate. She is to make a perfect inventory of the estate, pay the debts and legacies, if any, as far as the assets extend and the law directs, and she shall account for and distribute or pay all assets which come into her possession as administrator of the estate, and shall perform all things required by law touching the administration of the estate as required by Section 473.017. The Clerk is directed to issue letters of Supervised Administration consistent with these orders and to have Notice published in the Princeton Post-Telegraph, a newspaper of general circulation in Mercer County, Missouri. Clerk to notify counsel of record, heirs and other interested parties through the efiling system or by mailing a Notice of Entry. Ms. Garrison to submit a proposed order for the Court's consideration. SO ORDERED.
