    Hi @1alleycat - thanks for chatting with us today!

    What you have asked is a legal question, not a tax question. As we are tax experts here, we don't have insight into the answer. The person you want to address this question to is a qualified estate planning attorney that is familiar with the laws of Michigan. 

     

    Speaking of taxes, you might be pleased to know that Michigan does not have an estate tax. So, while I can't tell you about the process of probating a will in Michigan, at least you won't have any state taxes on the estate. 

     

    I hope this information was helpful!
