The South Carolina Petition for Administration Under Part 5 is a legal document that petitions the court to appoint someone to administer the estate of a deceased person. It is usually filed by a surviving spouse, child, creditor, or other interested party who has an interest in the estate. The petitioner must provide the court with information about the deceased's assets, creditors, heirs, and other pertinent information. The petitioner must also provide evidence that he or she is legally entitled to administer the estate. There are two different types of South Carolina Petition for Administration Under Part 5: Form Summons and Petition for Letters of Administration and Form Petition for Administration and Appointment of Personal Representative. The Form Summons and Petition for Letters of Administration is used when the deceased did not have a will, while the Form Petition for Administration and Appointment of Personal Representative is used when the deceased had a will. In both cases, the petitioner must provide the court with documentation proving their legal right to administer the estate.
