non-contentious disposal out-of-court


Explanation:
I surmise that this something to do with 'voluntary (agreed) jurisdiction', to wit: non-contentious business with probate (Scots law: letters of confirmation) issued in 'common' (undisputed) vs. 'solemn' (litigious) form, rather than a settlement like a DoFa: a Deed of Family Arrangement e.g. of Variation of a Will out-of-court.

TRAMITACIÓN > handling of the will but administration of the estate (forget for now the ambiguous term of settlement - family trust tie-up or winding-up - of the estate).

Example sentence(s):
  • Ireland: The Probate Office deals with 'non contentious' probate matters and has other important functions including issuing grants of probate and administration.

agree  philgoddard: I think "out of court" implies that there's been a dispute. I'd just say "non-contentious"..

  -> Thanks. The problem is that non-contentious business is handled in court anyway, namely in London by the Probate Registry of the Family etc. Division of the High Court.
