informal probate

Probate designed to operate with minimal input and supervision of the probate court.

• Most modern probate codes encourage this type of administration, with an independent personal representative.

— Also termed independent probate. Cf. independent executor under EXECUTOR. [Cases: Executors and Administrators 3(1). C.J.S. Executors and Administrators §§ 7, 9–10.]
