(a) If, after letters of administration have been granted as in case of intestacy, any will is proved and the executor therein named appears, claims letters testamentary and complies with the requisition of the law, the probate court having jurisdiction must revoke the letters of administration and grant letters testamentary to such executor.
(b) If, in the case provided for by subsection (a), the sole executor or some of the executors, within five days after the proof of such will, do not appear and take out letters testamentary thereon, a copy of the will must be annexed to the letters of administration and must be executed by the administrator.
