Representatives Pabon and Willett, co-prime sponsors, introduced Senate Bill 16-131. The bill reorganizes and updates the probate code and laws governing the management of an individual's assets. It clarifies when an unprobated will may be used as part of a proceeding and that judgment and decree will convey legal title as opposed to equitable title.
