C.R.S. § 15-12-702

Priority among different letters

Known as the Colorado Uniform Estate Tax Apportionment Act

The act spans §§ 15-12-1001 to 15-12-916 (155 sections).

A person to whom general letters are issued first has exclusive authority under the letters until his appointment is terminated or modified. If, through error, general letters are afterwards issued to another, the first appointed representative may recover any property of the estate in the hands of the representative subsequently appointed, but the acts of the latter done in good faith before notice of the first letters are not void for want of validity of appointment.
