Chapter 62 - Disclaimers
6202 - Disclaimers by fiduciaries or agents.

     § 6202.  Disclaimers by fiduciaries or agents.
        A disclaimer on behalf of a decedent, a minor or an
     incapacitated person may be made by his personal representative,
     the guardian of his estate or in the case of an incapacitated
     person who executed a power of attorney which confers the
     authority to disclaim upon his agent and which qualifies as a
     durable power of attorney under section 5604 (relating to
     durable powers of attorney) by such agent, if, in each case, the
     court having jurisdiction of the estate authorizes the
     disclaimer after finding that it is advisable and will not
     materially prejudice the rights of creditors, heirs or
     beneficiaries of the decedent, the minor or his creditors, or
     the incapacitated person or his creditors, as the case may be. A
     personal representative may make a disclaimer on behalf of his
     decedent without court authorization if the will of the decedent
     so authorizes him.
