2515

Any heir, or legatee, or creditor, or surety of an administrator or legal representative of such surety, or any guardian of a minor or incapacitated person, may petition the court that an executor or administrator render his final account, and such petition shall be granted, except that the judge to whom the petition is presented may, in his discretion, deny it if fifteen (15) months have not elapsed since the executor or administrator was appointed and it appears that for some good reason, based on difficulty and unavoidable delays arising in the administration, it has been impossible to close the administration and render the final account.\nHistory —Code Civil Proc., 1933, § 591.
