(2)The names, ages and mailing addresses of the heirs of the decedent, so far as known to the petitioner; and
(3)The character and estimated value of the property of the estate.
(b)Where the necessary jurisdictional facts actually exist but, through defect of form or error, they or any of them are incorrectly stated in any petition or pleading, the Superior Court of Guam has and retains jurisdiction to correct the defect or error at any time.
