Virtual Intestate Succession and Detention Orders

Sponsored By

The Texas Judicial Academy is a partnership between the Texas Association of Counties and the Texas Tech University School of Law.

Overview

Most Texans die intestate so it is important for probate judges to be familiar with property transference when a person dies without a will. This session will review heirship proceedings and dependent and independent administrations of estates.  We will also review important factors for judges to consider before and after issuance of detention orders or orders of protection. This webinar will provide 3 hours of continuing education.
