State tax filing

I chatted with a person at the CA FTB. He said that I DO have to file a CA 541 return "Based on this bullet alone. •The decedent was a California resident at the time of death."

 

Edit (2020-08-06): I also spoke with someone from the FTB over the phone and they confirmed that I do need to file a CA 541.
