29A-3-815. Administration in more than one state--Duty of personal representative.
(a) All assets of estates being administered in this state are subject to all claims, allowances and charges existing or established against the personal representative wherever appointed.
(b) If the estate, either in this state or as a whole, is insufficient to cover family exemptions and allowances determined by the law of the decedent's domicile, and claims and prior charges, each claimant whose claim has been allowed either in this state or elsewhere in administrations of which the personal representative is aware, is entitled to receive payment of an equal proportion of the claim, after satisfaction of the exemptions, allowances and prior charges. If a preference or security in regard to a claim is allowed in another jurisdiction but not in this state, the creditor so benefited is to receive distribution from local assets only upon the balance of the claim after deducting the amount of the benefit.
(c) In case the family exemptions and allowances, claims and prior charges of the entire estate exceed the total value of the portions of the estate being administered separately and this state is not the state of the decedent's last domicile, the claims allowed in this state shall be paid their proportion if local assets are adequate for the purpose, and the balance of local assets shall be transferred to the domiciliary personal representative. If local assets are not sufficient to pay all claims allowed in this state the amount to which they are entitled, local assets shall be marshaled so that each claim allowed in this state is paid its proportion as far as possible, after taking into account all distributions on claims allowed in this state from assets in other jurisdictions.
