§ 524.3-1008 — Subsequent Administration
Plain-Language Summary
This section explains what happens when estate property turns up after the estate has already been closed. If property is left out or discovered after the estate was settled and the personal representative discharged, or more than one year after a closing statement was filed, the court (on petition) or the registrar (on application by any interested person) may appoint the original or a successor personal representative to administer the newly found property. The usual rules of this chapter then apply to that later administration, except that any claim already barred cannot be revived.
524.3-1008 SUBSEQUENT ADMINISTRATION.
If property of the estate is omitted or discovered after an estate has been settled and the personal representative discharged or after one year after a closing statement has been filed, the court upon petition or the registrar upon application of any interested person and upon notice as it directs may appoint the same or a successor personal representative to administer the subsequently discovered estate. If a new appointment is made, unless the court or registrar orders otherwise, the provisions of this chapter apply as appropriate; but no claim previously barred may be asserted in the subsequent administration.
