A: Generally no. Once the final accounting is submitted to the court, the court will notify all beneficiaries that they have a right to a hearing to appeal or contest the approval of the final account. If no one asks for a hearing or disputes the final account, the court will approval. If the court has approved then assets can be distributed in accordance with the final accounting.
