Will

10.

Time

11. Bond

The decedent made a will dated __________________________.

To the best of my knowledge after a reasonable search, this is the decedent’s
last will and I do not know of any document that cancels or revokes this will.

A copy of the original will is attached. I understand I must keep the original will.

I am filing this probate case within the required time period because not more
than three years have passed since the person died.

(A bond is a cash payment or pledge of property that guarantees the personal representative will
fulfill his or her duties. However, the will commonly waives the bond requirement.) (Choose one.)

[ ] Bond is not required. (Utah Code 75-3-603).

[ ] Bond is required because (Choose one.):

$_________________.

[ ] the will requires a bond and the amount of the bond stated in the will is

[ ] an interested party asked for a bond before the appointment of a

personal representative.

[ ] a written demand for bond has been filed. (Utah Code 75-3-605).

Character and estimated value of the property of decedent (complete only if
bond is required and the bond amount is not specified in the will):

Real property

Personal property

Annual income from real and personal property $

Total $

I ask that:

Notice be given as required by law.

The will of the decedent, dated ______________________, be informally
probated.

Identified Data Fields:

We have done our best to automaticly identify and name form fields according to our naming conventions. When possible, we've used names tied to our question library. See e.g., user1_name. If we think we've found a match to a question in our library, it is highlighted in green. Novel names are auto generated. So, you will probably need to edit some of them if you're trying to stick to the convention.
