§ 29-1-10-5 — Actions or proceedings; evidence of authority

In any action or proceeding brought by the
personal representative in such representative capacity, it shall not be
necessary for him to make profert of his letters, nor shall his right to
sue as such personal representative be questioned, unless the opposite
party shall file a plea denying such right, with his affidavit to the truth
thereof thereunto attached, in which case a copy of the letters issued to
such personal representative, duly authenticated, shall be all the
evidence necessary to establish such right.
