§ 3a:10-3.
The court having jurisdiction of the settlement and allowance of a fiduciary's accounts,
in addition to such compensation as may otherwise be allowable, may allow reasonable
compensation to the fiduciary for services required by law to be rendered by the fiduciary
in connection with or arising out of any property as defined in section one, including,
but not by way of limitation, services rendered in connection with apportionment of
any taxes specified in section one between a decedent's estate and the recipient of
such property, or between the decedent's estate and such property, and in collecting
or attempting to collect, such apportionment of such taxes applicable to such property. Such reasonable notice as the court may prescribe, of application for the fiduciary's
additional compensation shall be given to the recipient of such property. Such additional fiduciary's compensation as may be allowed shall be payable by the
recipient of such property if such recipient is within the jurisdiction of the court,
or if the recipient is not within the jurisdiction of the court, shall be payable
out of such property, if such property is within the jurisdiction of the court. If the recipient of such property is not within the jurisdiction of the court and
if such property is not within the jurisdiction of the court, or if the fiduciary
does not succeed in collecting such additional fiduciary's compensation from the recipient
of such property or out of such property, the court may order such fiduciary's additional
compensation to be paid out of the corpus of the decedent's estate which comes into
the hands of the fiduciary.
