The clerk may decline an application for informal appointment if not satisfied that a requested informal appointment of a personal representative should be made because of failure to meet the requirements of §§ 29A-3-307 and 29A-3-308 or for any other reason. A declination of informal appointment is not an adjudication and does not preclude appointment in formal proceedings.
