321 - Application for appointment of committee.

 
    §  321.  Application  for  appointment  of committee. Such application
  shall be made upon personal notice of not less than twenty days to  such
  convicted  person  and  to the district attorney of the county where the
  conviction was had, and upon notice to such other persons  as  would  be
  entitled  to  notice  of application for the probate of the will of such
  convicted person if he were  then  dead  leaving  a  will  of  real  and
  personal  property,  to be given in like manner as notice of application
  for such probate. The application shall, among other things,  set  forth
  the  amount of the property of such person, and the names and residences
  of his heirs-at-law and next of kin, as near as the same  are  known  or
  can be ascertained by the applicant. Upon such application and due proof
  of  the  service  of  the  notice herein required, the court may, in its
  discretion, appoint a committee of the estate of such convicted  person.
  The  person  or persons so appointed as such committee shall file a bond
  in the county clerk's office of such county, and in such amount and with
  such sureties as the said court  shall  direct.  A  copy  of  the  order
  appointing  such committee certified by the clerk of the county in which
  the order is filed, shall be filed in every county  in  which  any  real
  estate of such convicted person is situated.
