Art. 554 ZGB
Die Erbschaftsverwaltung wird angeordnet: 1. wenn ein Erbe dauernd und ohne Vertretung abwesend ist, sofern es seine Interessen erfordern; 2. wenn keiner der Ansprecher sein Erbrecht genügend nachzuweisen vermag oder das Vorhandensein eines Erben ungewiss ist; 3. wenn nicht alle Erben des Erblassers bekannt sind; 4. wo das Gesetz sie für besondere Fälle vorsieht.
Hat der Erblasser einen Willensvollstrecker bezeichnet, so ist diesem die Verwaltung zu übergeben.
Stand die verstorbene Person unter einer Beistandschaft, welche die Vermögensverwaltung umfasst, so obliegt dem Beistand auch die Erbschaftsverwaltung, sofern nichts anderes angeordnet wird.
