A more thorough explanation:

PER MITTER L'ESTATE

Per mitter l'estate is a term from Law French that describes the process of passing an estate. It refers to the way in which a joint tenant's right to an entire estate arises when the tenant receives the remaining estate from the other joint tenant.

For example, if two people jointly own a piece of property, and one of them dies, the surviving joint tenant will automatically inherit the entire estate through per mitter l'estate. This means that the surviving tenant will become the sole owner of the property without having to go through probate.

Another example is if a parent and child jointly own a bank account, and the parent passes away, the child will inherit the entire account through per mitter l'estate. The child will not have to go through probate or any other legal process to claim the account.

Per mitter l'estate is a legal term that describes the way in which joint tenancy works. When one joint tenant dies, their share of the property or asset automatically passes to the surviving joint tenant. This is known as the right of survivorship. Per mitter l'estate is a way of describing this process in legal terms.
