524.3-608 TERMINATION OF APPOINTMENT; GENERAL.
Termination of appointment of a personal representative occurs as indicated in sections
524.3-609 to 524.3-612, inclusive. Termination ends the right and power pertaining to the
office of personal representative as conferred by this chapter or any will, except that a personal
representative, at any time prior to distribution or until restrained or enjoined by court order,
may perform acts necessary to protect the estate and may deliver the assets to a successor
representative. Termination does not discharge a personal representative from liability for
transactions or omissions occurring before termination, or relieve the representative of the duty
to preserve assets subject to the representative's control, to account therefor and to deliver the
assets. Termination does not affect the jurisdiction of the court over the personal representative,
but terminates the authority to represent the estate in any pending or future proceeding.
