Your question is incomplete. Were you married? Do you have property held jointly with the decedent? Did he have a will? Are you named as a beneficiary? Michigan is not a community property estate, so marriage is a dispositive factor.

What is the probate process after a parent's death?

Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Somebody needs to apply for probate. In this case, it would probably be his wife and it would be started where he died. However, you say temporarily. Was he on vacation or was it an extended stay? Did he tell you it was temporary so you wouldn't get mad? Regardless, if he really live in your state, I suppose you could open up a probate there, but eventually someone will win the battle of the probate forums. If the wife opens in the other state, she can then use that to open a probate in your state to handle his property there. You need to talk with an attorney and his wife and figure out the best way to proceed.

My mother in law passed away and left house to us, what do we do?

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
In Texas there is a simple form of probate where the will is admitted as a Muniment of Title only. If that was the form of probate, then the order proving up the will is sufficient to transfer title to the beneficiaries - there is no other document necessary. If there was an administration where an executor was appointed, it was that executor's duty to transfer the house into the beneficiaries name(s) by recording a deed of some kind. If this was not done, you may need to contact an attorney to get the court to order the administrator to do his job.
