§58-412.
§58-412.
To obtain an order for the sale of real property, the executor or
administrator must present a verified application to the court setting
forth that the sale of the real property will be in the best interest
of the estate and a general description of all the real property
except the homestead of which the decedent died seized, or in which he
had any interest, or in which the estate has acquired any interest,
and the value thereof; the names of the heirs, legatees and devisees
of the decedent, if any, so far as known to the petitioner. If any of
the matters here enumerated cannot be ascertained, it must be so
stated in the application; but a failure to set forth the facts
showing the sale to be supported by good cause will not invalidate the
subsequent proceedings, if the defect be supplied by the proofs at the
hearing, and the general facts showing such good cause be stated in
the decree.
