Administration Citation {KIN AC}

ADMINISTRATION CITATION. This form is used in the Surrogate's Court in Kings County, New York. It is issued when a petition has been filed for the administration of an estate. The citation serves to notify the interested parties that they are required to appear before the Surrogate's Court to show cause why a Decree should not be made in the estate, granting Letters of Administration to the petitioner or to another person who may be entitled to it. The citation includes the name and address of the petitioner, as well as the date, time, and location of the court appearance. In this case, in-person appearances are encouraged, but virtual appearances are available as an accommodation via Microsoft Teams. The court's website is provided for accessing the application link or phone-in options. The form also provides contact information for the attorney representing the petitioner. It states that the citation is served as required by law and informs the recipient that they are not required to appear or respond. However, failing to respond will be interpreted as not objecting to the relief requested. It also acknowledges the recipient's right to have an attorney appear or respond on their behalf. www.FormsWorkflow.com
