Santa Clara Superior Court · Local Forms

Verified current as of July 16, 2026

This form is used to transfer real estate property from a deceased person's estate to their heirs without going through the full probate court process, but only when the estate is small enough to qualify under California law. A family member or heir of someone who has passed away would need this form if they want to claim ownership of real property (land or a house) and the estate is below the monetary threshold that requires formal probate.
