Probate Court Case Types

Hello

I am trying to better understand probate case types, as they are filed at the court house. If anyone can provide me with a brief summary of the case types it would be helpful.

1) Domestic relations custody support and parenting time

2) Domestic relations

3) Domestic relations/other

4) Equity  partition

5) Equity complaint

6) Equity Petition

7) Estates and Administration

8) Guardianship managed

9) Joint petition

10) paternity managed

11) paternity in equity

12) probate abuse / conservator managed

13) probate other

14) Wills for safekeeping

Granted I know most of these probably do not pertain to real property, however what underlying situations would warrant the filing of these different cases?

Thank you
