 Since the days of Charles Dickens (think "Bleak House") it seems the purpose of probate has changed. Not so much on "the purpose" but more on the focus -- two foci: handling debt (creditors) and transferring wealth. My hunch is that in Dickens' day handing debt (the creditors) was the huge problem. Now, the emphasis in probate is how to manage the transfer of wealth?
