<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If a PR dies at the close of estate administration, leaving only the declaration of completion to be filed and notice sent to heirs and beneficiaries to finish the job, can the attorney for the PR finish it up? PR died intestate, decedent’s
2 year date of death anniversary is March 5, 2021, notice to creditors was published and claims have been resolved.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If an heir or beneficiary responded to the notice of filing within 30 days, the attorney would seek to have another PR appointed, but it is unlikely in this case. <o:p></o:p></p>
