abstract: "For each of the 50 US states and the District of Columbia, how the personal representative (executor) of an estate is paid, how the estate's attorney is paid, and how a trustee is paid. Records whether the fee is a statutory schedule, a presumed schedule, a cap, a minimum or reasonable compensation, the tiers as machine-readable bands, the base each percentage applies to, extraordinary-services rules, co-executor rules and waiver rules. Every cell cites the statute or court rule it rests on, with saved copies of each source."
