No one contested the wills of Phil Hartman and his wife, which direct that their $1.23 million estate go to their two children.

The nearly identical 50-page wills were admitted to probate court Wednesday in Los Angeles. The stipulations will take effect in four months unless objections are filed.Hartman, 49, was shot to death on May 28 by his wife, Brynn, in the couple's Encino home. Brynn Hartman, 40, then killed herself.

The couple directed that their children, 9-year-old Sean and 6-year-old Birgen, will be raised by Brynn Hartman's sister and her husband, who live in Eau Claire, Wis. The Hartmans directed that the first guardian who consents to take care of the children be given $50,000.

The children will receive one-third of their inheritance at 25, or when they receive a bachelor's degree from a four-year accredited university. Half the balance will go to them when they turn 30, and they will be given the remainder when they turn 35.
