15. 26PR0111 MATTER OF THOMAS Compromise of Minor’s Claim
This Petition is to be used for (1) the compromise of a minor's disputed claim, (2) the compromise or settlement of a pending action or proceeding to which a minor or a person with a disability (including a conservatee) is a party, or (3) the disposition of the proceeds of a judgment awarded to a minor or a person with a disability. (See Code Civ. Proc., § 372; Prob. Code, §§ 3500, 3600-3613.)
However, this Petition states that the minor is a beneficiary of his deceased mother’s life insurance policy. This is not the proper Petition.
TENTATIVE RULING #15: PETITION DENIED. IF A PARTY OR PARTIES WISH TO APPEAR REMOTELY, INSTRUCTIONS FOR REMOTE APPEARANCES CAN BE FOUND ON THE COURT’S WEBSITE.
