This responds to your recent request to be appointed administrator of the above estate.
You have advised us that the above decedent died intestate and presumably without known heirs.
Therefore, the Commonwealth has rights and interests with respect to the estate in accordance
with Section 2103(6) of the Probate, Estates and Fiduciaries Code.
Enclosed is a Renunciation directed to the Register of Wills of Cumberland County, authorizing
that you be granted Letters of Administration in the name of the Commonwealth, to act on its
behalf to administer the estate. Please file the enclosed Renunciation immediately with the
Register of Wills.
Please do not pay any bills or claims other than the ordinary expenses of administration until
they have been submitted to this office for approval. We will appreciate your efforts to insure
that funeral and other expenses relating to the estate are kept to a minimum. Also, check into the
possibility of income tax refunds, social security death benefits and veterans' benefits.
As administrator, you are required to make a full investigation of this estate and submit a report,
in accordance with the procedures of the County Orphans' Court. Please forward a copy of the
"Final Account" along with the "Petition for Distribution" before it is presented to the Orphans'
Court. Also, advise this office of the proposed date of audit by the Court.
You are required to file the accounting within one (1) year of the date of this letter, or upon
request or demand of the Secretary of Revenue. Failure or refusal to comply with these
instructions or to administer the estate according to law will indicate your agreement to withdraw
as Administrator in this estate, at the request of the Secretary of Revenue.
