2-7-403. Return of inventory of estate by representative; failure to comply; disposition of fines.

(a) Every personal representative shall make and return to the court within one hundred twenty (120) days after his appointment a true inventory upon his oath, of all the estate of the decedent, including the homestead, if any, which has come to his possession or knowledge. If the personal representative does not file such inventory within one hundred twenty (120) days, he shall show the court good cause for his delay and the court shall determine whether or not an extension of time shall be allowed. For failure to comply in good faith with the time limitations set forth, the personal representative shall be adjudged in contempt of court, and a fine imposed and other enforcement entered as the court in its discretion determines. Any fine assessed shall be paid into the corpus of the estate.

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in all cases to which W.S. 2-5-101 applies, the inventory shall be filed not more than seventy-five (75) days after the will has been admitted to probate.
