§ 625. Assessment against legatee or devisee
When any bond has been executed and delivered, under the provisions of the preceding section,1 and it is necessary for the settlement of the estate to require the payment of any part of the money thereby secured, the executor or administrator must petition the court for an order requiring the payment, and have a citation issued and served on the party bound, requiring him to appear and show cause why the order should not be made. At the hearing, the court, if satisfied of the necessity of such payment, must make an order accordingly, designating the amount and giving a time within which it must be paid. If the money be not paid within the time allowed, an action may be maintained by the executor or administrator on the bond.
