What is the name of your state? California
Is a personal representative required in a probate action to list very small personal items, like sunglasses, camera, ipod ? and if so, ultimately, is the representative required to sell the items so the cash proceeds are distributed? if the 2 heirs do not agree whether to sell the items, (the heirs are not speaking), what does the court dictate? In this situation the personal representative is entitled to one half of the estate and the opposing heir has retained an attorney but is not contesting the appointment.
