Abstract

Existing law requires a person appointed as a personal representative of an estate to post a bond approved by the court before letters are issued, except as specified. Existing law authorizes the court to fix the amount of the bond, not to exceed the sum of specified items, including the estimated value of the personal property and the probable annual gross income of the estate. This bill would, commencing July 1, 2014, require the reasonable amount for the cost of recovery to collect on the bond, including attorney's fees and costs, to be included in the above-described sum.
