The inventory is filed with the court within two months of the declaration.
The heir may apply to the judge for an extension if he can show serious and legitimate grounds for delaying the filing of the inventory. In this case, the two-month time limit is suspended from the date of the request for an extension.
The filing of the inventory is subject to the same publicity as the declaration.
If the inventory is not filed within the time limit, the heir is deemed to accept the inventory pure and simple.
Creditors of the succession and legatees of sums of money may, on proof of their title, consult the inventory and obtain a copy. They may ask to be notified of any new publicity.
