Colorado Code § 15-12-717

Corepresentatives - when joint action required
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
If two or more persons are
appointed corepresentatives and unless the will provides otherwise, the concurrence of all is
required on all acts connected with the administration and distribution of the estate. This
restriction does not apply when any corepresentative receives and receipts for property due the
estate, when the concurrence of all cannot readily be obtained in the time reasonably available
for emergency action necessary to preserve the estate, or when a corepresentative has been
delegated to act for the others. Persons dealing with a corepresentative, if actually unaware that
another has been appointed to serve with him or if advised by the personal representative with
whom they deal that he has authority to act alone for any of the reasons mentioned herein, are as
fully protected as if the person with whom they dealt had been the sole personal representative.
