REPORTER’S NOTE
Chapter 234 (SB 312), Acts of 2003, modified the time period
for a surviving spouse to take an elective share of an estate.
The time period originally was not later than seven months after
the date of the first appointment of a personal representative,
and it has been changed to the later of nine months after the
date of the decedent’s death or six months after the first
appointment of a personal representative under a will. The Rules
Committee proposes changing section (b) of Rule 6-411 to conform
to the statute, Code, Estates and Trusts Article, §3-206.
