Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Illinois
I was issued a citation for probate court for the date of July 6,2012. Appeared in court to find out the date is July 20th. What should I do? The court did issue me a slip to show I appeared for July 6.

If the date to appear is the 20th, show up on the 20th. However, if you were issued a citation, it was at the request or instigation of a certain party who wants you to produce evidence or testimony about something specific. You should carefully read the citation, determine who caused it to be issued, and call the party or the party's attorney if they have one and find out what is being requested of you and what you can do to comply.
