(a) General Rule. If a member who is an individual dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges the member to be incompetent to manage the member's person or property, or the court places the individual in bankruptcy, the member's executor, administrator, guardian, conservator, trustee, or other legal representative, except as otherwise provided in the articles or operating agreement, may exercise all of the member's rights, except voting rights, for the purpose of settling the estate or administering the member's property.
