The heir may accept the inheritance without going to court after the expiration of the term set for its acceptance, if the consent of all the other heirs who have received the inheritance is available. The signatures of the heirs on the documents containing such an agreement must be ratified in accordance with the procedure defined in paragraph 2 of Article 1226 of this Code. Such an agreement of the heirs is a basis for revoking the certificate of inheritance previously issued by a notary and issuing a new certificate. Based on the application of the heir who missed the term of acceptance of the inheritance, the court may recognize him as the recipient of the inheritance, considering the reasons for skipping the term respectable, if it turns out that the reason for missing the term was the fact that the heir did not know; that the heir who missed the deadline for accepting the inheritance has applied to the court within six months after the reasons for missing that deadline were eliminated. The court, recognizing the heir as the recipient of the inheritance, resolves the issues related to the rights of the other heirs to the inherited property, just as it invalidates the previously issued certificate of inheritance. In this case, a new certificate of inheritance is not required.
