ancillary administration

Read a random definition: Spendthrift Trust

A quick definition of ancillary administration:

Ancillary administration is when someone has to go through a legal process to handle the property and belongings of someone who has died in a different state than where they lived. This is because each state has its own rules about how property is handled after someone dies. So, if someone owned property in multiple states, their loved ones may have to go through a separate legal process in each state to make sure everything is taken care of properly.

A more thorough explanation:

Ancillary Administration

Ancillary administration is the legal process of handling an estate's assets located in a state other than where the deceased person lived. This process involves a separate probate proceeding in each state where assets are located, as each state has its own property laws.

For example, if a person lived in California but owned property in New York, their estate would need to go through ancillary administration in New York to distribute the assets located there. Another example would be if a person owned a vacation home in Florida but lived in Ohio, their estate would need to go through ancillary administration in Florida to distribute the property located there.

These examples illustrate how ancillary administration is necessary to ensure that all of a deceased person's assets are properly distributed according to the laws of each state where they are located.
