Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Minnesota

Re: Accounting of Will

In general it would go by what state did she reside in at the time she died. That's the state that would have jurisdiction.

There are exceptions. If there is an asset such as real estate in some other state, there may be a need for a separate probate proceeding in that state to deal with that particular item. This is called an ancillary proceeding, since it keys off the proceeding in the other state and usually honors the appointment of the personal representative in the first state.

There's no substitute for sitting down face to face with a lawyer to discuss questions like this. You can't get all the proper details into a question in a forum like this.
