1. If a special administrator is appointed
pending determination of a contest of a will instituted before it is admitted
to probate, or pending an appeal from an order appointing, suspending or
removing an executor or administrator, the special administrator has the same
powers, duties and obligations as an executor or administrator, and the letters
of administration issued to the special administrator must recite that the
special administrator is appointed with those powers.
2. If a special administrator has been
appointed, and thereafter a proceeding to contest a will before it is admitted
to probate has been instituted, the court shall enter an order granting to the
special administrator the additional powers, duties and obligations of an
executor or administrator and requiring such additional bond as the court deems
proper. The order is not appealable.
