English term or phrase: open an estate
I have to translate the following sentence. I'm not sure I am familiar with the term "open an estate". I'm sure it relates to some Court filing procedure as these are questions regularly asked in Court.

"Do I have to open an estate for a dead relative?"

As always, any and all suggestions are very much appreciated.
