RE: Estate of Paul L. Schlessman
To Whom It May Concern:
With respect to the above-captioned estate, it is necessary to provide the Department of Revenue with
some additional information to understand the return. The decedent had established a Revocable Living Trust
during his lifetime. However, he apparently never funded the trust daring his lifetime. At the time of his death
the probate assets as identified on Schedule E of the return were nominal and insufficient to pay the funeral
expense and administrative expenses of the estate.
The decedent was a bachelor and depended heavily upon his brother, Robert M. Schlessman, the executor
and successor trustee, to handle the decedent's financial affairs. Evidently the decedent put his brother's name on
all of his bank accounts as a joint owner a number of years ago. Then, approximately one to two months prior to
the decedent's date of death, the decedent made a gift of his one-half interest in the accounts to his brother. These
items are shown on Schedule G. The decedent's checking account remained in joint names with his brother and is
shown on Schedule F.
Essentially, there are no net probate assets available to flow into the Revocable Living Trust and then to
the named beneficiaries. All taxes and related matters were paid by the executor out of the gift funds.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
DHG:slg
