When someone passes away, the matter of settling their affairs and distributing their assets according to their will comes under the jurisdiction of a Surrogate’s Court, particularly in the State of New York. The Slt 2 form, formally recognized as the document for the "Renunciation of Successor Letters Testamentary and Waiver of Process (Individual)," plays a pivotal role in these proceedings. Intended for use by an individual who has been named as an alternate executor in a deceased person's will, this document enables the individual to formally renounce their rights to act as a successor executor. This act of renunciation ensures that the court can promptly authorize another person or entity to fulfill these duties without the need for additional legal notices or processes to the renouncing party. By waiving the right to these successor letters testamentary, as well as the issuance and service of citation in the estate proceedings, the individual helps expedite the legal handling of the deceased’s estate. This form also encompasses the individual's consent for the court to appoint another qualified person as the executor, further simplifying the procedure for all involved. The form highlights the importance of meticulously navigating estate settlements and the responsibilities inherited by those named in a will or involved in the execution thereof.
