The Pennsylvania Petition For Distribution (Testify) is a legal document filed in the Orphans' Court Division of the Court of Common Pleas in the county in which the decedent (the person who died) last resided. It is used to distribute the decedent's estate, which includes all of their property, assets, and debts. This document is filed by the executor or administrator of the estate, who is appointed by the court to manage the estate and ensure that all the decedent's debts are paid and the remaining assets are distributed to the beneficiaries as stated in the decedent's will or according to state intestacy laws if no will exists. The types of Pennsylvania Petition For Distribution (Testify) are: 1. Petition For Distribution Under Will — Used when the decedent left behind a valid will that outlines how their assets should be distributed upon their death. 2. Petition For Distribution Without Will — Used when the decedent did not leave behind a valid will and the estate is distributed according to state intestacy laws. 3. Petition For Distribution With Ancillary Administration — Used when the decedent has assets located in multiple states and an ancillary administrator must be appointed in each state to manage the assets in that state. 4. Petition For Distribution Of Non-Probate Assets — Used when the decedent had non-probate assets such as life insurance policies, retirement accounts, and bank accounts with a designated beneficiary. These assets are distributed directly to the beneficiary and the petition is used to document the transfer. 5. Petition For Distribution Of Jointly Owned Assets — Used when the decedent owned property jointly with another person and the property must be distributed to the surviving owner.
