The bill amends section 14-3204 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which pertains to the process for individuals seeking notice regarding orders or filings related to a decedent's estate in which they have a financial or property interest. Under current law, individuals can file a demand for notice with the court, and they must also mail a copy of this demand to the personal representative if one has been appointed. The bill maintains this requirement but clarifies that the demand for notice can be waived in writing by the demandant and will automatically cease when the demandant's interest in the estate terminates.

Additionally, the bill specifies that the validity of orders or filings made without compliance with the notice requirement is not affected by the error, but it introduces potential liability for the petitioner or person making the filing for any damages caused by the lack of notice. This change emphasizes the importance of adhering to the notice requirement while also providing a clearer framework for waiving the notice obligation.
