Jane's mother has died and the court is already sorting out the mother's money and property. Jane wants to ask the court to change the name on a car title that was left to her.

Jane can file her request to change the car title in the same court case that is already dealing with her mother's estate, as long as she does it before the court finishes handing out everything, and she won't have to pay another filing fee.
