The personal property of a deceased person must be assessed to the personal representative in the
place where the deceased last resided, and such assessment continues until the personal representative
gives notice to the assessors that such property has been distributed. If the deceased at the time of death
did not reside in the State, such personal property must be assessed to the personal representative in the
place where such property is situated. Before the appointment of a personal representative, the personal
property of a deceased person must be assessed to the estate of the deceased in the place where the
deceased last resided, if in the State, otherwise in the place where such property is situated, and the
personal representative subsequently appointed is liable for the tax. [PL 2017, c. 288, Pt. A, §38
(AMD).]
