Section 3–504. [Supervised Administration; Powers of Personal Representative.]

Unless restricted by the court, a supervised personal representative has, without interim orders approving exercise of a power, all powers of personal representatives under this code, but the personal representative shall not exercise power to make any distribution of the estate without prior order of the court.
