Revocation of Letters for Embezzlement, Waste or

Mismanagement Discovered Upon Settlement of Account. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2115 of this Title, if it appears to the Superior Court of Guam upon the settlement of any account of a personal representative that he has embezzled, wasted or mismanaged the estate, his letters shall be revoked, and the Superior Court of Guam shall grant letters to some other competent person entitled thereto as personal representative in his stead. SOURCE: Probate Code of Guam (1970), § 524; Guam Law Revision Commission. COMMENT: The only changes from § 524 of the Probate Code of Guam (1970) are the addition of the last clause, which appears to be necessary for the orderly administration of estates if a personal representative's letters are revoked for the reasons set forth in the first clause; and the addition of the language, "Notwithstanding... Section 2105 of this Title," which is intended to indicate that the provisions of §§ 2113 and 2115 are not mutually exclusive.
