Currently, the distributees of the estate of a decedent who dies intestate are entitled, under certain circumstances, to the decedent's estate without waiting for the appointment of a personal representative of the estate. House Bill 3136 amends the Estates Code, in such an intestate estate, to require a list of all known estate assets and liabilities in an application for a small estate affidavit to indicate which assets the applicant claims are exempt property.
