Article 2 - General Assignments for the Benefit of Creditors
11 - Proceedings in Case of Death of Assignee.

§ 11. Proceedings in case of death of assignee. In case an assignee
shall die during the pendency of any proceeding under this article, or
at any time subsequent to the filing of any bond required herein, his
personal representative or successor in office, or both, may be brought
in and substituted in such proceeding on such notice, of not less than
eight days, as the judge may direct to be given; and any decree made
thereafter shall bind the parties thus substituted as well as the
property of such deceased assignee, provided, however, that if such
assignee dies subsequent to the filing of his bond and before any
proceedings may have been had thereunder, then the surety on such bond
may apply to the judge for an accounting, who may, on such terms as to
him seem just and proper, appoint another assignee and release such
surety.
