TITLE 53 WILLS, TRUSTS, AND ADMINISTRATION OF ESTATES

Section 7. Administration of Estates Generally, 53-7-1 through 53-7-78.

ARTICLE 1 POWERS AND DUTIES GENERALLY

53-7-3. Powers and immunities of administrator with will annexed.

An administrator with the will annexed shall have all rights, powers, privileges, exemptions, and immunities of the executor, including the dispensation by the testator of the necessity of making inventory and returns.

(Code 1981, §53-7-3, enacted by Ga. L. 1996, p. 504, § 10.)

COMMENT

This section carries forward former OCGA Sec. 53-7-3, but omits the reference to bonds that appeared in that section. The reference is omitted because, whether or not relieved by the will, executors are generally not required to give bond unless the probate court so decrees. See Article 6 of Chapter 6 for provisions on bonds of personal representatives. See Code Sec. 53-1-2 for the definitions of "administrator with the will annexed" and "executor".
