Terms Used In Alabama Code 43-2-333

  • Executor: A male person named in a will to carry out the decedent
  • Probate: Proving a will
  • 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.
  • year: means a calendar year; but, whenever the word "year" is used in reference to any appropriations for the payment of money out of the treasury, it shall mean fiscal year. See Alabama Code 1-1-1

The executor or administrator must pay, at the end of each year, to the owner or owners of such share or shares a proportionate share of the profits arising from such estate, and is entitled to a credit for same; but if it shall appear, on a settlement of his accounts, that he has not paid the same, a decree therefor in favor of the owner or owners must be rendered by the probate court.
