1. If an interested person discovers that
the sureties of a personal representative have become or are becoming
insolvent, or that any one of them has removed from, or is about to remove from
the State, or that from any other cause the bond is insufficient, the
interested person may file a petition with the court requesting that further
security be given.
2. If it comes to the knowledge of the
court that the bond is for any cause insufficient, it may, on its own motion,
without any petition, require further security.
3. A personal representative or the
counsel of the personal representative, if either becomes aware of facts
causing a need therefor, shall petition the court for an order ex parte
increasing a bond to the total appraised value of personal property on hand plus
1 years estimated income from real and personal property. In an accounting, if
a bond has been posted, a separate paragraph must be included describing the
total bond posted, the appraised value of personal property on hand plus the
estimated annual income from real and personal property and a statement of any
additional bond thereby required.
