(b) In a proceeding in which the court has been requested by petition to approve a verified written statement of accounts, any person authorized by 30-4-5-12(c) to petition for an accounting may file an appropriate responsive pleading, and if he does so, he must file it within the period of time after notice that a responsive pleading is required to be filed after service of a prior pleading under the Indiana Rules of Procedure.
(c) When a responsive pleading filed under subsection (b) of this section includes objections to any matter contained in the trustee's statement, those objections must be specific unless the court orders otherwise.
