estate under the administration of a trustee
estate under the administration of a trustee
You say it is a normal estate, so that is my guess.
The surrounding sentence would probably make it clearer, if you could give us that without compromising on client confidentiality.

Those isolated words are always the toughest!
In that position it is possibly an indication of a category for archiving or something like that - again, wild guessing as I can't see the document...
But unless it is a category - perhaps rephrased as:
estate under trustee administration
-- it is hard to come up with anything better

Note from asker:
| Thanks, Christine. Unfortunately, there isn't a surrounding sentence - it's just a standalone word near the bottom of the front page. If it helps, it's a solicitor/lawyer administering the estate. |

Comment: "Thanks for your help. In the end, I decided this is probably as close to the meaning as I could get."

Ha! I forgot about the last "bo", and now when I tried to enter "administer", you already entered the answer...

estate in supervised administration; (spec. E&W) probate in solemn form
Not sure what a 'normal' estate is.
Companies also have a 'bo' - in which case the bobestyret is a committee of inspection.
Private individuals, if insolvent - just one scenario here - have a trustee-in-bankruptcy.
If one of the heirs is insolvent or there is a family dispute etc., then it's possible in the UK that a judicial trustee is appointed cf. in the US supervised estates.
Probate in solemn form: where in E&W there is a dispute.
