What it does

Existing law requires the custodian of a will to, within 30 days after having knowledge of the death of the testator, or upon a petition for probate of the will being filed earlier, deliver the will to the clerk of the superior court of the county in which the estate is administered and mail a copy of the will to the executor or as otherwise specified. Existing law requires the clerk of the court to release a copy of a will delivered under those provisions for attachment to a petition for probate of the will or on receipt of payment of the required fee and either a court order for production of the will or a certified copy of a death certificate of the decedent.
