Date Introduced: January 29, 2014
It is enacted by the General Assembly as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 33-22-11 of the General Laws in Chapter 33-22 entitled "Practice in Probate Courts" is hereby amended to read as follows:
33-22-11. Notice by advertisement. -- In all cases
in which notice is required and special provision is not made for it, it shall
be given by advertisement of a notice once a week for at least two (2) weeks,
the first advertisement to be published at least fourteen (14) days before the
first of any hearing dates contained in such notice, in a newspaper printed in
English and published or previously published in
the county and presently distributed in the county or in a
Providence newspaper having general circulation within the county in which the
matter is to be acted upon, as the probate court by general rule or special
order may designate for that purpose; provided, however, that when a probate
court shall give, or order to be given, notice by advertisement in a newspaper which that has
furnished the court with a definite schedule of prices for this advertising,
the court shall require the cost of the advertising to be paid to the clerk of
the court in advance, and the court shall pay over each month to the newspaper
the sums so paid in, upon proof that the notice has been advertised as ordered;
provided, however, that any advertisement affecting probate matters in the town
of New Shoreham shall be given in a newspaper printed in English and published or previously published in the county and presently
distributed in the counties of Washington and/or Providence.
SECTION 2. This act shall take effect upon passage.
