§58-384.
§58-384.
When it appears to the court that there is good cause although the
assets of the estate in personalty are sufficient to satisfy all
obligations of the estate or that the estate is insolvent, or that it
will require a sale of all the property of the estate of every
character, chargeable therewith, to pay the family allowance, expenses
of administration and debts, there need be but one petition filed, but
one order of sale made and but one sale had, except in case of
property, which may be sold as provided in Section 387 of this title.
The district court, when a petition for the sale of any property, for
any of the purposes herein named, is presented, must inquire fully
into the probable amount required to make all such payments, and if
there be no more estate chargeable therewith than sufficient to pay
the same, may require but one proceeding for the sale of the entire
available estate. In such case the petition must set forth all the
facts required by Section 412 of this title. When the sale is sought,
although assets of the estate in personalty are sufficient to satisfy
all obligations of the estate, the court may allow the sale if
satisfied that it is in the best interest of the estate.
