To make a number of miscellaneous amendments to the estates and protected individuals code, as recommended by the Probate and Estate Planning Section of the State Bar of Michigan. These are mostly technical, but the bill does add some new procedural safeguards. In 1998 the state law that covers wills, estates, and probate was extensively revised, and this bill "cleans up" some inconsistencies in the new law that have arisen since then.
