Estate of Judith M. Franzi Price 21PR000119

REVIEW HEARING: STATUS OF ADMINISTRATION

APPEARANCE REQUIRED: On November 7, 2025, the Court ordered Petitioner to file a Status Report prior to this date. The status report was to focus on efforts taken, and results obtained, between then and May 07, 2026, in selling the remaining real properties and should provide an estimate for closing the estate. Petitioner has filed nothing since that date and therefore, is ordered to appear to update the Court on the status of the case.
