How to use probate in a sentence?

1. Los Angeles:

   I was after Aretha Franklin for a number of years to do a trust, it would have expedited things and kept them out of probate and kept things private.

2. Kenneth Feinberg:

   Normally, probate courts give the widow discretion in spending funds for family members especially sons and daughters.

3. Chris Stoll:

   Justice Moore's administrative order is meaningless. Every probate judge in Alabama should be complying with (Obergefell v. Hodges) and a federal district court in Alabama has directly ordered them to do that.

4. Richard Kaplan:

   It’s not uncommon that a conservator mismanages money and profits off of that, that’s why probate courts have to look so closely at these things.

5. Attorney Alana Yakovlev:

   Although it is unusual for someone this young to have a conservator appointed, it seems to have worked out for Ms. Spears' best interests, the probate conservatorship in place for Ms. Spears is different from others in that she retains some autonomy and control over decision making process such as where she resides, although she must consult with conservator as far as financial decisions come into play.
