Probate - Must a devisee receive notice of all estate proceedings?
Question
If the Will says a friend gets a rocking chair and a granddaughter gets
a bedroom set, and all residue goes to the three kids, do the people that
get "an item" have a right to a full accounting of the entire estate?
The 3 kids do not want them to know.
Answer
One the devise is satisfied, the devisee is no longer considered to be
an interested person and would not need to be notified of further proceedings.
