s 9 Constructive renunciation
(1) Any person having or claiming any interest in the estate of a deceased person, or any creditor of a deceased person, may, without applying for representation, cause to be issued a citation directed to the executor or executors appointed by the deceased’s will, or to any person appearing to have a prior right to representation, calling upon the person cited to accept or renounce the right. (2) Any person so cited may enter an appearance to the citation, but if he makes default in appearance thereto, he shall be deemed to have renounced the right; and if, having appeared, he does not proceed to apply for representation, the person so citing may apply for an order that the person cited, unless he applies for and obtains a grant within a time limited by the order, shall be deemed to have renounced his right thereto, and an order may be made accordingly. (3) If the Court is satisfied that any person who is or may become entitled to representation has been personally served with the notice of hearing for the grant of representation, and the person fails to appear or file any objection, he shall be deemed to have renounced his right of representation.
