Commission conducts estate hearing
Jackson Newspapers
After a very brief meeting with a short agenda on Feb. 3, the Jackson County Commission recessed until a 10 a.m. estate hearing.
Most estate hearings are cut and dry and can be probated easily. Occasionally, one comes before the Commission that is a bit more complicated.
Because the estate of Evelynn Stanley involved a joint will in 1974 with her husband, the process becomes more convoluted. Her husband passed away in 1999 and she made a new will in 2015. The question arises from the fact that she left her estate differently than the joint will of 1974.
