What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
I have a question. My step-father, who was the executor of my mother's estate, submitted an affidavit asking the judge to close down the probate case without requiring a Fiduciary's Account, however, my step-father had failed to provide "service" to my party in regards to the affidavit submitted, and also no where in the affidavit did it state that my party was "served." I was unaware of the affidavit until after the judge had approved closing down the probate court case.
Note: The judge ordered that the estate case be closed because of no probatable assets.
My question: Are probate court cases exempt to ex parte communications? If the judge acted illegally who best should I report this to.
Since this case and the affidavit is public record and I believe when I say the case was closed in January 2013 in the Lorain County Probate Court of Ohio I am not violating any forum rules.
I tried to submit a motion to re-open the case, but the Lorain County Probate Court of Ohio, Clerk would not accept a motion from me and said the Executor, my step-father, is the only person allowed to re-open my mother's case.
Thanks.
