CASE No: PES-26-309456
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of KAI ANDREW MIDDLETON, aka KAI A. MIDDLETON
A Petition for Probate has been filed by MARINA ESPERANZA DIAZ in the Superior Court of California, County of SAN FRANCISCO.
The Petition for Probate requests that MARINA ESPERANZA DIAZ, be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
The Petition requests the decedent's will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held as follows:
Date: June 16, 2026 at 9:00 AM, Dept 204, Probate Department, Superior Court of California, County of SAN FRANCISCO, 400 McAllister Street, San Francisco, CA 94102.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing a personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of
