2005 Rhode Island Code - § 33-11-10 — Bond to cover contingent claim.

    If a person interested in the estate offers to give bond to the alleged creditor, with sufficient surety or sureties for the payment of his or her claim in case it shall be proved to be due, the court may order a bond to be taken instead of requiring assets to be deposited as provided in § 33-11-9. But nothing contained in this section shall be construed to prevent any person holding the contingent claim from waiting until his or her right of action accrues, and then bringing suit against the heirs, devisees, legatees or next of kin, as provided in this chapter.
