THE EXECUTOR‘S ROLE IN PASSING THE ASSETS OF THE SUCCESSION
THE EXECUTOR‘S ROLE IN PASSING THE ASSETS OF THE SUCCESSION

Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to analyse the institution of the executor, given that this analysis would seem necessary in the context where, after the death of an individual, a representative must exist to distribute his assets and carry into effect his wishes post mortem for the purpose of avoiding misunderstandings between inheritors. In the same time, in practice, these instructions are often carried through by the deceased’s inheritors, but the legislator thought necessary to institute an executor by law and invest him with the necessary power of attorney to ensure the execution of the testamentary devises for the case in which the deceased, wishing to create equality between the inheritors, did not appoint any of them to bring his instructions into effect.
