BECK, Judge:

The issue is whether, in an intestacy proceeding, Section 3521 of the Probate, Estates and Fiduciary Code permits the trial court to order the original distributees to return a portion of their distribution in order to satisfy the later valid claims of additional heirs discovered after the confirmation of the account.
