Re: stocks left intestate, no beneficiary named
Assuming your mother was a Michigan resident when she died...
If the stock is the only asset your mother left that requires probate to transfer you should be able to do so using a small estate procedure in probate court. The probate court will be the one in the county in which your mother resided.
If your mother was a resident of another state at death, then you would have to check that state's probate procedure for the answer.
