a document issued by the court clerk which states the authority of the administrator
of an estate of a person who has died, when there is no will or no available executor
named by a will and an administrator has been appointed by the court. It is issued
during probate of the estate as soon as the court approves the appointment of the
administrator, who files a security bond if one is required. Certified copies of
the letters are often required by banks and other financial institutions, the federal
government, stock transfer agents or other courts before transfer of money or assets
to the administrator of the estate.
