§ 15-12-309. Informal appointment proceedings - registrar not satisfied.
If the registrar is not satisfied that a requested informal appointment of a personal representative should be made because of failure to meet the requirements of sections 15-12-307 and 15-12-308 or for any other reason, he may decline the application. A declination of informal appointment is not an adjudication and does not preclude appointment in formal proceedings.
