Unsupervised Administration or Unsupervised Estate

A procedure used in estate administration in which most of the estate activity is done without court intervention. The court is involved at the opening and closing stages, but does not generally become involved otherwise unless requested by the personal representative or an interested person, or on the court's own initiative. When an estate is unsupervised, the suffix of the file number will be a "DE," such as 2002-123456 DE.
