PART 5. 
SUPERVISED ADMINISTRATION



 



§560:3-501  Supervised administration;
nature of proceeding.  Supervised administration is a single in rem
proceeding to secure complete administration and settlement of a decedent's
estate under the continuing authority of the court which extends until entry of
an order approving distribution of the estate and discharging the personal
representative or other order terminating the proceeding.  A supervised
personal representative is responsible to the court, as well as to the
interested parties, and is subject to directions concerning the estate made by
the court on its own motion or on the motion of any interested party.  Except
as otherwise provided in this part, or as otherwise ordered by the court, a
supervised personal representative has the same duties and powers as a personal
representative who is not supervised. [L 1996, c 288, pt of §1]
