excess of $6,000 received. (a) If, at such sale or any subsequent sale, no bid in excess of
$6,000 is received, the representative must report that fact to the court; and thereupon the
court must make an order directing the report to lie over 30 days, during which time any person

Section 43-2-391 Notice and hearing. Such application must not be heard until 10 days after
the filing thereof, and notice thereof may be given to some person adversely interested whenever
the court may deem just. When, or at such time as the court may continue the hearing, the

report it and obtain an order of distribution as to the whole, or any part of the property;
but, in such case, if the distribution or the order is made before a final settlement of such
estate, neither the distribution, the order, nor the proceedings thereon are a defense in
