Assent to sale free of ward's interest.) When any court in this State is about to order the sale of real estate in which a ward has an estate of homestead or any other interest, the representative may assent in writing on behalf of the sale of the homestead or other interest of the ward pursuant to the direction of the court by which the representative was appointed.
