Surrogate's Court
The focus on the Surrogate’s Court
Committee is to address issues relevant to the Surrogate’s Court
practice. Currently,
the committee has identified several new projects with which members are
encouraged to become involved, including Guardianship Investments and
529 Plans, Fiduciary Commissions on Real Estate Assets, Supplemental
Needs Trusts Remainder Provisions, Construction Proceedings, and
Proceedings to Determine Claims. We also have members who have agreed to write
articles relevant to Surrogate’s Court issues, such as
“Identifying When are Commissions Payable with Respect to Real
Estate.” In the
past, our committee has been involved in many important issues,
including the development and acceptance by Surrogate’s Court of
Hot Docs procedural forms, and establishing guidelines for Guardians
ad Litem appointed in the Surrogate’s Court.
