Probate proceedings: rules of practice.

Abstract

Existing law provides that except to the extent that the Probate Code provides applicable rules, the rules of practice applicable to civil actions, including discovery proceedings and other proceedings, as specified, apply to, and constitute the rules of practice in, proceedings under that code. Existing law provides that all issues of fact joined in probate proceedings shall be tried in conformity with the rules of practice in civil actions. Existing law also requires that an affidavit or verified petition be received as evidence when offered in an uncontested proceeding under the Probate Code. This bill would recast those provisions to provide more specificity for applicable rules for probate proceedings. This bill would also require that an affidavit or verified petition be received as evidence when offered in accordance with specified provisions.
