Terms Used In Alabama Code 43-2-644
- Assets: (1) The property comprising the estate of a deceased person, or (2) the property in a trust account.
- Evidence: Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other.
- Settlement: Parties to a lawsuit resolve their difference without having a trial. Settlements often involve the payment of compensation by one party in satisfaction of the other party's claims.
On the day appointed, or on any other day to which the application may be continued, if the court is satisfied from the evidence that the assets are more than sufficient to pay the debts and charges, it may make an order of distribution for such portion of the distributive share of the applicant as may be authorized by the evidence; but, in making such order, the court must not exceed the share to which the applicant would be entitled on a final settlement and distribution.
