N.J. probate rules differ from most states due to the fact that the individual counties establish probate procedures. The only time limit set statewide, is that a will or probate proceedings may not begin until the eleventh business day after the person has died. There usually isn't a penalty for delayed probate filing. However, the case will probably be handled differently, than one that was filed within established time limits. The best option is contacting the county probate court of jurisdiction for further instructions.
