ARTICLE 5. Licenses and Certificates of Authority
Section 9723.3
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, based upon a finding by a court of competent jurisdiction that a cemetery manager of a private cemetery has ceased to perform his or her duties, as described in subdivision (a) of Section 9605.1, due to a lapse, suspension, surrender, abandonment, or revocation of his or her license, the court may appoint a temporary manager to manage the cemetery property and to service the prepaid interments of the private cemetery. The court shall appoint a licensed cemetery manager as the temporary manager.
(b) The appointed temporary manager shall have the same powers over the care and maintenance of the private cemetery as a licensed cemetery manager, as described in subdivision (a) of Section 9605.1. The temporary manager shall serve for a limited term not to exceed six months, or until a new licensed manager has been hired, at which time the court shall terminate the appointment of the temporary manager.
(c) The court may authorize the payment of reasonable compensation for the temporary manager s services, which shall be paid by the trustees from available income from the cemetery. In exercising its discretion pursuant to this subdivision, the court shall give due consideration to the ability of the cemetery income to otherwise pay for care and maintenance of the cemetery.
