Statement

If the attorney cannot file the inventory within two months, the attorney must notify the Court in writing of the reasons for noncompliance.

In a supervised estate, any required appraisal must be filed with the petition to sell; no separate appraisal is required if it is reflected in the inventory.

In a supervised estate, the verified inventory is due within two months after the Personal Representative’s appointment.

If an estate cannot be closed, the attorney must report its condition to the Court within one year of appointment and annually until administration is complete.

Fee

25

If court costs, fines, or civil penalties are not paid by the ordered date, a late fee of $25 or the maximum permitted by Indiana law must be imposed.

Court-ordered fines, fees, costs, and civil penalties are due as directed by the Court, or by 4:00 PM on the due date if the Court sets no other time.

A court may suspend a late payment fee if it finds that the defendant showed good cause for failing to pay in full on time.
