§ 11-4.6 Leave  to  issue execution against personal representative; how             procured; order and contents thereof; security  before  order             granted;  execution  on  judgment  recovered  by  predecessor             representative    (a) Leave to issue execution against personal representative.    Except as provided in this paragraph, an execution shall not be issued  upon a judgment for a sum of money against a personal representative, in  his representative capacity, until an order permitting it to  be  issued  has  been  made by the surrogate's court from which letters were issued.  Such an order must specify the sum to be collected,  and  the  execution  must  be endorsed with a direction to collect that sum. If a judgment is  rendered jointly against a personal representative in his representative  capacity and one or more other parties, execution may be issued thereon,  without such order, against the other party if a direction  is  endorsed  thereon   not   to   levy   against  any  property  which  the  personal  representative is or may be entitled to possess  in  his  representative  capacity.    (b) How leave procured; order; contents thereof.    At  least six days notice of the application for an order specified in  paragraph  (a)   must   be   personally   served   upon   the   personal  representative,  unless  it  appears that service cannot be so made with  due diligence, in which case notice must be given to such persons and in  such manner as the surrogate directs by an order to show cause  why  the  application  should  not  be  granted. Where it appears that the assets,  after payment of all sums chargeable against them for expenses  and  for  claims  entitled  to priority as against the plaintiff, are not, or will  not be sufficient to pay all the  debts,  testamentary  dispositions  or  other  claims  of  the class to which the plaintiff's claim belongs, the  sum directed to be collected by  the  execution  shall  not  exceed  the  plaintiff's  just  proportion  of  the assets. In that case, one or more  orders may be  subsequently  made  in  like  manner,  and  one  or  more  executions  may be subsequently issued, whenever it appears that the sum  directed to be collected by the first and subsequent execution  is  less  than the plaintiff's just proportion.    (c) Security before grant of order.    Where  a  judgment has been rendered against a personal representative  in  his  representative  capacity  for  a  testamentary  disposition  or  distributive  share,  the surrogate, before granting an order permitting  an execution to be issued thereupon, may, and in  a  proper  case  must,  require  the applicant to file in his office a bond to the defendant, in  such a sum and with such sureties  as  the  surrogate  directs,  to  the  effect  that  if,  after collection of any sum of money by virtue of the  execution, the remaining assets are not sufficient to pay all  sums  for  which  the  defendant  is  chargeable  for  expenses, claims entitled to  priority  as  against  the  applicant,  and   the   other   testamentary  dispositions   or   distributive  shares  of  the  class  to  which  the  applicant's claim belongs, the plaintiff will refund  to  the  defendant  the  sum  so  collected, or such ratable part thereof as is necessary to  make up the deficiency.    (d) Execution on former judgment.    An execution may be issued in the name of a  personal  representative,  in  his representative capacity, upon a judgment recovered by any person  who preceded him in the administration of the same estate, in  any  case  where  it might have been issued in favor of the original plaintiff, and  without a substitution.
