Section 43-2-502 Filing of account, etc. - Generally. In making settlements of an administration,
the executor or administrator must proceed as follows: He must make out an account between
himself and the estate he represents, charging himself with all the assets of the deceased
which have come into his possession, except the lands, and crediting himself with all the
credits he is by law entitled to; which account, verified by his oath, must be filed with
the judge of probate of the court having jurisdiction. With such account he must also file
written evidence in his possession, on which he relies to sustain the credit side of such
account, which may consist of an affidavit or any other legal evidence, in the discretion
of the executor or administrator. He must, at the same time, file a statement, on oath, of
the names of the heirs and legatees of such estate, specifying particularly which are under
the age of 19 years; and, if any of them are persons of unsound mind, it must be...

such account, any person may attend on the part of such executor or administrator or, if dead,
of his personal representative or, in case of his removal from the state, his sureties and
show that he is entitled to additional credits; and any person interested may attend and contest
any item of such account or in any previous account, or may show assets not accounted for,
or that such executor or administrator has failed to collect any assets from want of due diligence,
or that, by any abuse of or failure to discharge his trust, such assets, or any portion thereof,
have been injured, destroyed or depreciated; and, in case of such proof, the executor or administrator
or, if dead, his personal representative or, in case of his removal from the state, his sureties

voluntarily made. (Code 1852,...

Section 43-2-530 Authorization to compel settlement. Any executor or administrator may be required
by citation to file his accounts and vouchers and to make a settlement, notwithstanding any
provision in any will or other instrument to the contrary; and, if after service of the citation,
he fails to file his accounts and vouchers for a settlement on the day named in the citation,
the probate court or other court having jurisdiction of the said estate may compel him to
do so by attachment or may proceed to state the account against him from the materials on

have come to his hands. (Code 1852, §1817; Code 1867, §2153; Code 1876, §2524; Code 1886,

Section 43-2-93 Reducing amount of bond. Upon the filing of any partial settlement by the executor
under a will, or the administrator of the estate of a deceased person, in the court in which
such estate is pending, such executor or administrator may pray for a reduction in the amount
of his or her bond as a fiduciary, and thereupon the court must set a day for the hearing
of such partial settlement and must cause notices to be issued to all parties in interest
as is now provided by law for final settlements of such estates. And on the day set for hearing
the court may fix the amount to which the bond shall be reduced, which shall be determined
as now provided by law for such bonds. (Acts 1939, No. 560, p. 883; Code 1940, T. 61, §112.)...

Section 12-11-41.1 Transfer to circuit court; remand to probate court. (a) In any county where
the judge of probate is required to be learned in the law, the administration of any estate
may be removed from the probate court to the circuit court pursuant to Section 12-11-41 at
any time before a proceeding for final settlement thereof is commenced in probate court by
any heir, devisee, legatee, distributee, executor, administrator, or administrator with the
will annexed of the estate, without assigning any special equity. The circuit court shall
remand the administration of an estate transferred pursuant to this section to the probate
court if the circuit court finds that the removal was sought for the purpose of improper delay
or did not comply with applicable law. The circuit court may remand the administration of
an estate pursuant to this section to the probate court if the circuit court finds that any
of the following apply: (1) The circuit court has issued a final order or...

Section 43-2-640 Authorization to make distribution - Distribution by executor or administrator.
When the executor or administrator is satisfied that the estate is solvent, he may, after
six months from the date of the grant of letters testamentary or of administration, make distribution
of the whole or any part of the property without obtaining an order of court, or he may so
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
any action brought against such executor or administrator as such. (Code 1852, §1771; Code
1867, §2097; Code 1876, §2474; Code 1886, §2191; Code 1896, §259; Code 1907, §2724; Code

person shall be pending in any court, and the records of such court shall show that letters
testamentary or letters of administration on such estate were issued and that 20 years or
more have elapsed since six months after such letters were issued, without further action
in said cause, or if any further action was taken in said cause, and 20 or more years have

any future liability as such surety or sureties, or upon the application in writing of the
personal representative or of an heir or devisee of a deceased surety upon such bond requesting

Section 26-2A-147 Accounts. Each conservator shall account to the court for administration
of the conservatorship upon resignation or removal and at other times as the court may direct,
but if not otherwise directed, the conservator must, at least once in three years, account
to the court. If the conservator shall die before making the accounting, the conservator's
personal representative will make the accounting, or if no personal representative has been
appointed, the sureties on the conservator's bond may proceed to make the accounting. On termination
or removal of the protected person's minority or disability, a conservator shall account to
the court or to the formerly protected person. An order after notice and hearing allowing
an intermediate account of a conservator is a final adjudication as to liabilities concerning
the matters considered in connection therewith. Thereafter, at any time prior to final settlement,
the account may be reopened by the court on motion or petition...
