1. No executor of the will of a deceased executor, as such, is authorized to administer the estate of the first testator, but on the death of the sole or surviving executor of any last will, letters of administration with the will annexed of the estate of the first testator left unadministered must be issued. If no executor is named in the will, or if the sole executor or all the executors named therein are dead or incapacitated, or neglect or fail to apply for letters, or to appear and qualify, or die after the issuance of letters and before the completion of the administration, letters of administration with the will annexed must be granted. 2. The account of a deceased personal representative may be settled, duties may be terminated, and sureties may be released of liability subsequently incurred, upon the petition of either the attorney who represented the deceased personal representative in the probate or administration or upon the petition of any of the sureties, and upon such notice as the court directs.
