53-7-181. (Pre-1998 Probate Code) Duty of judge of probate court to examine returns and vouchers; recordation and filing; return of original vouchers on demand; recorded return as prima-facie evidence

The judge of the probate court shall carefully examine each return of an executor or administrator and its vouchers; and, if he finds it correct and no objection is filed within 30 days from the time it is filed in his office, he shall allow the same and order it to be recorded, together with the original or copy vouchers attached. The return and copy vouchers shall be kept on file in the office of the judge. If the original vouchers are filed without copies, they shall, when recorded, be returned to the executor or administrator on demand. The return thus allowed and recorded shall be prima-facie evidence in favor of the executor or administrator of its correctness.
