A closed probate case may be reopened if, the decision or order issued in the probate case contains an error of fact or law (including, but not limited to, a missing or improperly included heir or devisee, a found will, or an error in the distribution of property), and the error is discovered more than 30 days after the mailing date of a decision.
(a) Any interested party or BIA may seek correction of the error of fact or law by filing a petition for reopening with the judge.
(b) Reopening may also be initiated on a judge's own motion.
