The court granted a petition to open the estate of Danny Allen Paul Hemas and appointed Brenda Kolhimus as personal representative after hearing from Mark Jackson, counsel for the petitioner. Jackson told the court the estate’s sole asset is a parcel with a manufactured home and that the 2026 state equalized value (SEV) is $53,600, down from $56,000 the prior year.
The court found the filings sufficient, noted there were no objections to the petition or the request to administer the estate without supervision, and signed the order opening the estate and issuing letters of authority. Counsel and the court exchanged brief procedural directions for obtaining copies and next steps for administration.
