§ 2725. Account of Deceased or Incompetent Personal

Representative; Accounting by Attorney; Fee for Such Accounting.

If the personal representative dies or becomes incompetent, his

accounts may be presented by his personal representative or guardian to,

and settled by, the Superior Court, and, upon petition of the successor of

such deceased or incompetent personal representative, the Superior Court

shall compel the personal representative or guardian of the deceased or

incompetent personal representative to render an account of the

administration of his testator or intestate, and must settle such account as

COL120106

in other cases. In the event the personal representative dies or becomes

incompetent and there is no personal representative appointed for his

estate, or he absconds, then the Superior Court may compel the attorney

for such absconding, deceased or incompetent personal representative or

attorney of record in the estate proceeding to render an account of the

administration of such absconding, deceased or incompetent personal

representative to the extent that the attorney has information or records

available to him for the purpose. The account of the attorney need not be

verified. A reasonable fee shall be allowed to the attorney by the Superior

Court for this extraordinary service.
