§5140.  Requests to court for instructions

If the keeper or the mortgagor or the mortgagee is of the opinion that some action beyond the ordinary course of administration or management of the property is required to preserve or protect the property, or if, in the event the mortgagor or mortgagee believes the keeper is acting beyond his authority or is failing to act in accordance with his authority, such party may apply to the court before whom the proceedings are pending, in a summary proceeding with notice to the mortgagor and mortgagee if they are not a party to such application, for instructions as to the proper course that should be taken by the keeper.  The court may issue orders or instructions deemed necessary or appropriate for the protection of the property and the interests of the parties therein.  An order of the proper court issued pursuant to such an application shall be full authority for the keeper to act in accordance therewith, and he shall be fully protected from all claims of any person as a result thereof.
