The Least Restrictive Way to Limit Letters of Administration

"In New York, although a practitioner might expect the Surrogate's Courts to act uniformly as part of the New York State Unified Court System, Surrogate's Courts in various counties may operate differently when assessing petitions. One example is with respect to restrictions placed on letters of administration. While under-restricting letters of administration may result in inadequate safeguards on the interests of non-consenting distributees, over-restricting letters could result in (i) a hindrance of a fiduciary's powers statutorily granted under EPTL §11–1.1, (ii) an unnecessary burden on the court's limited resources caused by additional applications to remove the restrictions, (iii) delayed administration of estates, and (iv) conflicts with the legislative intent as expressed in the Bennett commission."
