Terms Used In 15 Guam Code Ann. § 5103

  • Decedent: A deceased person.
A war claims award, or any share therein, set aside pursuant to this Chapter or assigned or distributed upon administration of a decedent‘s estate to a person residing out of Guam may be delivered by registered or certified U.S. mail, postage prepaid, with return receipt, to the last known address of the nonresident assignee or distributee, and upon such mailing the personal representative shall not be personally liable for any loss arising from nonreceipt thereof, except for willful misconduct. If the award or any share therein, after mailing as aforesaid, is returned to the personal representative unclaimed, the same shall be deposited with the Clerk of the Superior Court in the name of the nonresident assignee or distributee, pursuant to § 3023 of Chapter 30 of this Title, unless the Superior Court orders delivery by such other means as it deems appropriate, compliance with which shall also discharge the personal representative from any liability whatsoever.
