Can you explain what you mean? If your father alive still, or has he passed away and his estate is being settled? By roommate do you mean a friend, or a life partner with whom he had a relationship?

Do you mean, "Independent Administration of Estate"?

What state is this in?

(from ChatGPT)

"This is a legal concept in probate law.

What it means:
Independent administration allows the executor or personal representative of an estate to manage the estate with minimal court supervision.

That typically means the executor can:

Sell property
Pay debts
Distribute assets
Handle routine estate matters without having to ask the probate court for permission every time.

Why courts allow it:

It is meant to:

- Speed up probate
- Reduce legal fees
- Avoid repeated court hearings

Contrast with “dependent administration”:

In a dependent administration, the executor must get court approval for many actions, such as:

- Selling real estate
- Paying certain debts
- Distributing property"
