Sec. 5245.

The assignee shall keep a regular account of all money received by him, to which account every creditor or other interested person shall be at liberty at all reasonable times to have access. Within 3 months after receiving such trust, the assignee shall file a report in said clerk's office of the condition of said estate, containing a statement of all property whatsoever received by him and the disposition made thereof, and of all moneys received, disbursed and on hand, and shall quarterly thereafter make like report covering all matters since the preceding report.

It shall be the duty of the assignee to close his trust if practicable within 1 year from the date the assignment is filed, but such court or judge shall have power upon cause shown to extend the time allowed for that purpose, for such further periods as may be reasonably necessary, but in case of application for any such extension, notice thereof by mail or otherwise as said court or judge may direct shall be given to the creditors who shall have the right to appear and be heard with reference thereto.
