e term personal representative, as used in this Chapter, shall mean the executor, the administrator with the will annexed, or the adminis- trator, but shall not mean a special administrator unless the special administrator’s powers are made general pursuant to the provisions of Section 1911 of this Title.

SOURCE: Guam Law Revision Commission.

COMMENT: The provisions of Chapter 25 are intended to deal with matters occurring during the regular course of administration. Special administrators, having been appointed for particular purposes, should not be subject to the provisions of Chapter 25 because their duties under law are not those of regular personal representatives (unless their powers are made general, as provided in § 1911.) Once a regular personal representative has been appointed, or once a special administrator’s powers are made general, that person must then comply with the provisions of Chapter 25.
