§ 58-106. Executor disqualified by absence or minority.

Where a person absent from the state, or a minor, is named executor, and there is another executor who accepts the trust and qualifies, the latter may have letters testamentary and administer the estate until the return of the absentee, or the majority of the minor, who may then be admitted as joint executor.  If there is no other executor, letters of administration with the will annexed, must be granted; but the court may, in its discretion, revoke them on the return of the absent executor, or the arrival of the minor at the age of majority.
