Sec. 45a-409. (Formerly Sec. 45-230). Settlement of estate without commissioners.
Sec. 45a-409. (Formerly Sec. 45-230). Settlement of estate without commissioners. When it appears to the Court of Probate that the assets of the estate of any
deceased person in settlement before the court, exclusive of the articles which may be
legally set out to the surviving spouse and the allowance for support of such spouse and
that of the family of the deceased, will not be more than sufficient to pay the funeral
expenses, the expenses of settling the estate, the expenses of the last sickness and the
lawful taxes and debts due the state and the United States, the court may, after notice
to all persons interested, upon hearing, ascertain the amount of the funeral and other
expenses and of such taxes and preferred debts, and decree that the settlement of the
estate be completed without the appointment of commissioners.(1949 Rev., S. 7015; P.A. 74-91, S. 1; P.A. 80-476, S. 282.)
History: P.A. 74-91 substituted "surviving spouse" for "widow"; P.A. 80-476 made minor changes in wording; Sec. 45-230 transferred to Sec. 45a-409 in 1991.
