Art. 3136. Descriptive list of property in lieu of inventory

    Whenever an inventory of succession property otherwise would be required by law, the person at whose instance the inventory would be taken may file with the Department of Revenue and in the succession proceeding, in lieu of an inventory complying with articles 3131 through 3135, a detailed, descriptive list of all succession property. This list shall be sworn to and subscribed by the person filing it, shall show the location of all items of succession property, and shall set forth the fair market value of each item thereof at the date of the death of the deceased.

    The privilege of filing a descriptive list of succession property, in lieu of an inventory thereof, may be exercised without judicial authority.
