§ 5706. Persons presumed dead from September 11, 2001, terrorist attack
The requirements of sections 5703 (relating to distribution of property of absentee) and 5704 (relating to notice to absentee) shall not apply with respect to a person who is presumed dead as a result of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. These terrorist attacks constitute specific perils within the meaning of section 5701(c) (relating to proof of death) which would justify a court to immediately determine that the presumed decedent died on September 11, 2001.
