  • Do you believe the liquidator is in conflict of interests?
  • Do you believe that the liquidator has committed fraud?
  • Is the liquidator of the estate in bad faith?

To remove a liquidator is an extreme measure. This is because the Court has to put aside the last wishes of the testator. Only then it may name someone else. Therefore, the court must be convinced that there is solid proof for giving rise to this appeal.

Without asking for the dismissal of the liquidator, the heirs can ask that the court intervene in the management of the estate. The liquidator has to provide an inventory as well as a rendering of the accounts to the heirs. Consequently, if neither the inventory nor the rendering of the accounts are provided within the time limit, the heirs can appeal to the court for their rights to be respected. The same can happen if the liquidator provides an incomplete or erroneous inventory or rendering of the accounts.
