A quick definition of nonintervention executor:
A nonintervention executor is a person named in a will to carry out the wishes of the person who wrote the will. They are called "nonintervention" because they can administer the estate with very little supervision by the probate court. This means they have more freedom to handle the estate as they see fit, without having to get approval from a judge. Only a few states allow for nonintervention executors, but they are often used when the testator trusts the executor to handle things on their own.
A more thorough explanation:
A nonintervention executor is a type of executor who is also known as an independent executor. This person is named by a testator to carry out the provisions in the testator's will. Unlike an ordinary executor, a nonintervention executor can administer the estate with very little supervision by the probate court.
For example, if a person writes a will and designates their spouse as a nonintervention executor, the spouse can handle the estate's affairs without having to obtain court approval for every decision. This allows for a smoother and quicker distribution of assets to beneficiaries.
Nonintervention executors are only allowed in a few states, mostly in the West and Southwest. However, lawyers can write wills that relieve a trusted executor from obtaining appraisals, providing inventories and surety bonds, and obtaining court approval "to the maximum extent permitted by law."
