§ 58-598. Rights of creditors not included in order
When the accounts of the personal representative have been

whose claim was not included in the order for payment has any right
to call upon any creditor who has been paid, or upon the heirs,
devisees, or legatees, to contribute to the payment of his claim;
but if the personal representative has failed to give the notice to
creditors as required in Section 331 of this title, such creditor
may recover on the bond of the personal representative the amount of
his claim, or such part thereof as he would have been entitled to
had it been allowed. This section shall not apply to any creditor
whose claim was not due as of the presentment date specified in the
notice to creditors.
