People search for this help in plain language — "relative died, small estate in Florida, what form" and "probate for a small estate in Florida — summary administration." The two proceedings below are the ones the Clerks themselves present on their Probate pages.

Disposition of Personal Property Without Administration

Both county clerks publish information for the proceeding called "Disposition of Personal Property Without Administration." The Osceola Clerk posts the fillable form on its website. The Osceola Probate page describes it as a petition to release a decedent's assets to the person who paid final expenses (funeral bills, and medical bills for the last 60 days), states it cannot include real property, and lists what must accompany the form: the will if there is one, an itemized paid funeral bill, paid medical receipts from the last 60 days, a death certificate, a statement of the asset to be released, and identification. The Orange County Clerk lists the same case type on its probate schedule. The authority the Osceola Clerk cites is Fla. Stat. §§ 735.301 and 732.402 and Florida Probate Rule 5.420.

Summary Administration

The clerks describe "Summary Administration" as one of the probate proceedings, with the filing requirements published on the Clerk's Probate page. The Osceola Clerk's Probate page publishes the estate-value and time-since-death conditions for this proceeding, and the Orange County Clerk lists Summary Administration on its probate schedule. Readers can confirm the current conditions on the Clerk's Probate page for the county where the case files — Osceola cases file in Kissimmee, Orange cases file in Orlando.
