Rule 6.03 - [Effective 4/18/2024] FIDUCIARIES AND ATTORNEY MUST BE DILIGENT
(A) Every fiduciary and attorney must be diligent in the performance of their duties. They must see to it that publication for creditors is promptly made, that inventories, appraisements, accounts and all other reports and proceedings are made, done, filed, and presented within the time required by law, and that the estates of decedents are completed and assets distributed in a timely manner.
(B) In guardianships and conservatorships an attorney must be faithful to both fiduciary and ward. If it appears to the attorney that the fiduciary is not properly performing duties required by the law then the attorney shall promptly notify the court in which the estate is being administered.
(C) Until relieved of fiduciary duties by court order, every fiduciary shall notify the chancery clerk in writing of every change of address not later than five days after such change. The notice shall include the civil action number and the name of the fiduciary.
(D) Failure to observe this rule, unless just cause exists, shall constitute contempt for which the chancellor will impose appropriate penalties.
