53-7-183. (Pre-1998 Probate Code) Docket of persons liable to make annual returns; citation of defaulters; continued willful failure as cause for removal


To ensure annual returns from every administrator or executor, it shall be the duty of the judge of the probate court to keep a docket of all those who are liable to make returns and, immediately after the session of the January term in each year, to cite all defaulters to show cause for their neglect. A willful and continued failure to make a return shall be good cause for removal from the trust.
