Part 3: INFORMAL PROBATE AND APPOINTMENT PROCEEDINGS
§3-302. Informal probate; duty of register; effect of informal probate
Upon receipt of an application requesting informal probate of a will, the register upon making the findings required by section 3-303 shall issue a written statement of informal probate if at least 120 hours have elapsed since the decedent's death. Informal probate is conclusive as to all persons until superseded by an order in a formal testacy proceeding. No defect in the application or procedure relating thereto which leads to informal probate of a will renders the probate void. [1979, c. 540, §1 (NEW).]
