Estate of Allen Paul Stanton

extent Petitioner disagrees with this interpretation, he shall file an Amended Petition. (5) The Petition states that all heirs at law have waived bond. (Pet., § 3(e)(3).) However, there are no bond waiver forms (DE-142/DE-111) in the file. Petitioner is directed to submit bond waiver forms by all heirs. Otherwise, the proper amount of bond to be imposed is $420,000. (Prob. Code, § 10453.) (6) There is no proposed order (DE-140) or proposed letters (DE-150) on file.

However, if no publication has been made, the Court will be forced to DENY the Petition without prejudice. Proper publication is required to invest the Court with subject matter jurisdiction over the Estate. (Prob. C. § 8005, subd. (b)(1)(C).) Therefore, the Petition may not be heard unless and until an affidavit of publication is on file. (Prob. C. § 8124.) The first of the three required publications must be at least 15 days before the hearing. (Prob. C. §8121(a).) Finally, the hearing on the Petition must be no less than 15 days and no more than 30 days after the Petition is filed. (Prob. C. §8003(a).) For this reason, if no proper publication of the hearing was made, the Court is without jurisdiction to hear the Petition and cannot continue the hearing to permit Petitioner to cure the defect.
