Superior Court Seeks Comment on Proposed Changes to Probate Rules

August 10, 2021

The Superior Court of the District of Columbia recently completed its review of proposed amendments to the Superior Court Rules of the Probate Division. The rules have been completely reorganized and renumbered, so the court has not provided a marked-up version of the proposed rules.

The Rules Committee will recommend that the Superior Court Board of Judges approve the amendments unless, after consideration of comments by the bar and general public, the proposed changes are withdrawn or modified.

View the proposed rules here. Written comments must be submitted by October 15, 2021, via email to [email protected] or by mail to:

Laura M.L. Wait
Associate General Counsel
District of Columbia Courts
500 Indiana Ave, NW, Room 6715
