A: This blank line is for the type of petition you are seeking to waive the notice requirement for. Because this form is used for different types of petitions (i.e. Petition for Probate of a Will, Administration Petition, etc.), you should fill in the blank with the type of Petition that your upcoming hearing is on. Check with the probate clerk in the applicable city/town if you are still unclear.
