| If there is no Will
This is what they mean when they say the person has ‘died intestate’. Unfortunately the procedure is more complicated and instead of having to apply for Probate, you have to apply for Letters of Administration. As there is no Will to appoint the executors, the law determines the person or persons to be responsible for administering the estate. They are called the Administrators. Usually the Administrators are close relatives of the person who has died but they must be persons entitled under the intestacy rules to act as administrators, explain to the Probate Registry how they are entitled and then carry out the same administrative duties with the same liabilities as executors.
