524.3-702 PRIORITY AMONG DIFFERENT LETTERS.
A person to whom general letters are issued first has exclusive authority under the letters
until the appointment is terminated or modified. If, through error, general letters are afterwards
issued to another, the first appointed representative may recover any property of the estate in the
hands of the representative subsequently appointed, but the acts of the latter done in good faith
before notice of the first letters are not void for want of validity of appointment.
