700.3607 Order restraining personal representative.

Sec. 3607.

(1) On petition of a person who appears to be an interested person or acting on the court's own motion, the court, by temporary order, may restrain a personal representative from performing a specified act of administration, disbursement, or distribution, or from exercising a power or discharging a duty of the personal representative's office, or may make another order to secure proper performance of the personal representative's duty, if it appears to the court that the personal representative otherwise may take some action that would jeopardize unreasonably the interest of the petitioner or of some other interested person. A person with whom the personal representative may transact business may be made a party.

(2) The court shall set a hearing date for a matter described in subsection (1), which hearing date shall be not more than 14 days after the date of the issuance of the temporary order, unless the parties agree otherwise. Notice shall be given as the court directs to the personal representative, to the personal representative's attorney of record, if any, and to any parties named defendant in the petition.
