Probate question | Aug 3, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: Michigan My father passed about two months ago, and I have so far been navigating the probate process by myself. I am the personal representative/executor of the estate and am up to the point where I need to submit the personal inventory. The problem that I’ve run into is that my father’s dad passed away about a year ago, and my father never moved the funds from his estate bank account. The probate case is closed, my father is the sole beneficiary (as written in my grandfather’s will), but the estate bank account is still open and in my father’s name as the executor. My questions are: Do I include my grandfather’s estate bank account on my father’s personal inventory for his probate process? As far as I can tell, I have to petition the court where my grandfather died to temporarily reopen his probate case, get letters of authority for his estate, then I can take my documents to the bank and transfer the funds from my grandfather’s estate account into my father’s estate account. Is that correct? The account has less than $50k in it, so it seems it would be eligible for the small estate process. TIA for any help.
