SECTION 3-320. UNIVERSAL SUCCESSION; UNIVERSAL SUCCESSORS’ LIABILITY FOR RESTITUTION TO ESTATE Uniform Probate Code

SECTION 3-320. UNIVERSAL SUCCESSION; UNIVERSAL SUCCESSORS’ LIABILITY FOR RESTITUTION TO ESTATE Uniform Probate Code
 
   If a personal representative is subsequently appointed, universal successors are personally liable for restitution of any property of the estate to which they are not entitled as heirs or devisees of the decedent and their liability is the same as a distributee under Section 3-909, subject to the provisions of Sections 3-317 and 3-321 and the limitations of Section 3-1006.
Comment

The liability of universal successors for restitution in the event a personal representative is appointed is spelled out in this section and keyed to the parallel sections in the UPC.
