§ 91-9-211. Jurisdiction.
Jurisdiction to settle the accounts of a trustee who may resign and to appoint a successor is vested in the chancery court of the county in which the will of the deceased has been probated in the case of a testamentary trust where the will is probated in this state, and in the chancery court of the county of the residence of the grantor or settlor in the case of an inter vivos trust when the grantor or settlor is a resident of this state at the time of creating the trust. In all other cases such jurisdiction is vested in the chancery court of the county of the residence of the individual trustee, or one of them, or of the county in which the office, or one of the offices, of a corporate trustee is located. The hearing on such matters may be conducted either in term time or by a judge of such court in vacation.
