75-3-302. Informal probate -- Duty of registrar -- Effect of informal probate.
After receipt of an application requesting informal probate of a will, the registrar, upon
making the findings required by Section 75-3-303 shall issue a written statement of informal
probate if at least ten days have elapsed since the date of the notice required by Section 75-3-306,
or if at least 120 hours have elapsed since the decedent's death and all persons entitled to notice
under Section 75-3-306 have waived such notice in writing. Informal probate is conclusive as to
all persons until superseded by an order in a formal testacy proceeding. No defect in the
application or procedure relating thereto which leads to informal probate of a will renders the
probate void.
