The Administrative
Board for the
Offices of the
Public
Administrators
(“Administrative
Board”) was
established in 1993
pursuant to Section
1128 of the New York
Surrogate’s
Court Procedure Act
to establish
guidelines for the
operations of the
offices of the
Public
Administrators of
New York State.
Public
Administrators are
responsible for
handling the estates
of decedents who
have no close
relatives or named
executors eligible
or willing to serve
as the fiduciary of
their estates.
Public
Administrators serve
in the City of New
York, and in Erie,
Monroe, Onondaga,
Nassau, Suffolk, and
Westchester
Counties. In the 51
counties not served
by a Public
Administrator, the
Public
Administrator’s
function is carried
out by the Chief
Fiscal Officer of
each county, usually
the county
treasurer. The
Administrative Board
has jurisdiction
over the eleven
Public
Administrators and
over the Chief
Fiscal Officers with
respect to their
estate administrator
duties.
