3B:22-17.Ā  Defense to action on fiduciary's bond in certain cases
A fiduciary, who has received a devise or distributive share from a personalĀ  representative and has given a refunding bond therefor, may set up in absoluteĀ  bar to an action on the bond, that he has lawfully paid out and distributed theĀ  devise or distributive share to the person entitled thereto, and has taken aĀ  refunding bond therefor from that person.Ā  If the fiduciary has paid out a partĀ  only of the devise or distributive share and has taken a similar refunding bondĀ  therefor, he may defend in like manner as to the part so paid or distributed.
