A.  An opposition may be filed at any time before homologation, and shall be tried as a summary proceeding.  If no opposition has been filed, the succession representative may have the tableau of distribution homologated and the court may grant the authority requested at any time after the expiration of seven days from the date of publication or from the date the notice required by Article 3306 is mailed, whichever is later.

B.  If an opposition has been taken under advisement by the court after the trial thereof, notice of the signing of the judgment homologating the tableau of distribution, as originally submitted or as amended by the court, need be mailed by the clerk of court only to counsel for the opponent, or to the opponent if not represented by counsel.

C.  After the delay for a suspensive appeal from the judgment of homologation has elapsed, the succession representative shall pay the debts approved by the court.
