Section 473.050 RSMO provides that in order for the will of the decedent to be valid, it must be presented to the probate court within one year after the date of death of the decedent. According to the Statute, presentment is defined as either an affidavit requesting that the will be admitted to probate or a petition which seeks to have the will admitted to probate court. Attorneys will usually seek to have the will of the decedent admitted to probate court in order to ensure that it is valid after one year.
