14-3607. Order restraining personal
representative
A. On petition of any person who appears to have an interest in the estate, the
court by temporary order may restrain a personal representative from performing specified
acts of administration, disbursement or distribution, or may exercise any powers or
discharge any duties of his office, or may make any other order to secure proper
performance of his duty, if it appears to the court that the personal representative
otherwise may take some action which would jeopardize unreasonably the interest of the
applicant or of some other interested person. Persons with whom the personal
representative may transact business may be made parties.
B. The matter shall be set for hearing within ten days unless the parties otherwise
agree. Notice as the court directs shall be given to the personal representative and his
attorney of record, if any, and to any other parties named defendant in the petition.
