certificate described in division (A)(3) of section 2107.19 of the Revised Code . No other person may commence an action permitted by section 2107.71 of the Revised Code to contest the validity of the will more than three months after the initial filing

for value in good faith and shall not impose any liability upon a fiduciary who has
acted in good faith, or upon a person delivering or transferring property to any other
person under authority of a will, whether or not the purchaser, lessee, encumbrancer,
