§ 1802. Determination by court of persons entitled to estate
If the court determines that the heirs or personal representatives of the deceased
person are not at the time of the hearing in possession of the real estate and are
not entitled to reenter it or to institute and maintain a suit to recover possession
of it, the court shall adjudge and decree that the real estate constitutes no beneficial
part of the estate of the deceased person and may appoint an administrator to convey
the record title of the real estate to the person or persons adjudged by the court
to be legally entitled to it. (Amended 2017, No. 195 (Adj. Sess.), § 11.)
