Senate. Comm. on Probate and Chancery. Act in addition to an act on proceedings in probate court, 1834

Senate No. 44 On February 10 and 21, 1834, the Committee on Probate and Chancery was asked to consider several issues relating to estate administration. On February 28, 1834, it reported a bill: An Act in addition to an act to regulate the jurisdiction and proceedings of the Courts of Probate, 1834. If there was a controversy about the sanity of a testator, the Judge could allow letters of limited administration so an administrator could collect and pay debts, do the inventory, and generally keep the process moving. The administrator could not have an interest in the outcome of the proceedings and if the judge appointed two administrators, he was to take bond from each.
