SYNOPSIS
The efficient administration of an estate depends on the participation of those connected to it – including its executor and beneficiaries. But what if an executor or beneficiary cannot be found? Or, more curiously still, what if the deceased cannot be found, nor their death confirmed? Catherine Bunio explores legal procedures and practical strategies for navigating these unusual circumstances, including passing over an executor, dispensing with P1 notice, and bringing proceedings under the Presumption of Death Act or Estates of Missing Persons Act.
ACKNOWLEDGING FIRST NATIONS TERRITORIES
This rebroadcast is hosted by CBABC, which is located on the traditional and unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples, including the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh and Musqueam First Nations. We encourage our members to explore the rich history and knowledge of Indigenous people, and to continue learning about their experience in Canada, past and present.
