Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Probate Act of 1975 by making a  technical  change  to

          755 ILCS 5/1-1                                                       
          Adds reference to:                                                   
          755 ILCS 5/25-2                                                      
        Deletes everything.  Amends the  Small  Estates  Article  of  the      
   Probate  Act of 1975.  Provides that, upon receiving an affidavit that      
   the personal estate of a ward does not  exceed  $10,000  (rather  than      
   $5,000),  a  person  or  corporation  indebted to, or holding personal      
   property or stocks or bonds of, the ward shall pay the indebtedness or      
   deliver the property, stocks, or bonds to  the  person  executing  the      
   small estate affidavit.  Effective immediately.                             
          CORRECTIONAL NOTE                                                    
          No fiscal or prison population on DOC.                               
          FISCAL NOTE (Office of Ill. Courts)                                  
          This bill would have no fiscal impact on the Judicial Branch.        
          JUDICIAL NOTE                                                        
          It is not possible to determine what impact the bill will have       
          on the need to increase or decrease the number of judges in the      
          state.                                                               
          STATE MANDATES FISCAL NOTE (DCCA)                                    
          SB 361 fails to create a State mandate.                              
          HOME RULE NOTE                                                       
          SB 361 does not preempt home rule authority.
