44-6-67. Effect of executor's assent to legacy to life tenant on remainderman; possession at termination of life estate


The assent of an executor to a legacy to a life tenant inures to the benefit of the remainderman. At the termination of the life estate, the remainderman may take possession immediately unless the will provides for a sale or other act to be done for the purpose of or prior to a division, in which case the executor may recover possession for the purpose of executing the will.
