Huh? Probate takes as long as it takes. Sometimes it can be over in a year sometimes it can take 10 years. No public record? The case needs to be filed to be found on the clerk's record. Not enough facts to really answer your inquiry

Did you sign a petition for discharge of the estate?

Ask your attorney when this was filed.
