Probating a will means that the will must be presented to the probate court for allowance. The court will examine the will to determine its validity under state laws. When the will is allowed the court will appoint the named executor who is usually the person who submitted the will for probate. If no executor was named in a will the court will appoint the person who requested the appointment as long as there no are objections. An executor named in a will has no power or authority until they have been appointed by the court.
The court will issue Letters Testamentary to the executor and the letters provide the authority to settle the estate. The executor must settle the estate according to the provisions in the will and the state probate laws under the supervision of the court. The debts of the decedent must be paid before any property can be distributed to the heirs.
