Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. If no claims are made during the 1-year
period by any person claiming to be the missing person or a person claiming to
have succeeded to the rights of that person, a conclusive presumption arises that
the missing person died before the filing of the petition for the
administration of the estate of the missing person or the probate of his or her
will.
2. In such event, the estate must be
finally distributed accordingly, so far as the same has not already been
accomplished, and the court shall order the estate closed and all liability of
sureties, the personal representative and the distributees ended, and all bonds
cancelled.
