(1) (2) (3) Except as otherwise provided in KRS 64.050, if any officer dies before making out a fee-bill or collecting his fees, his deputy, or, if none, his personal representative, may, within two (2) years after the services were rendered, make out and sign a feebill therefor, and may list the fee-bill in due time for collection with the proper officer, and the fee-bill shall be collectible and distrainable as if issued by the deceased officer in his lifetime. Any person against whom an illegal fee-bill is made by a deputy or personal representative shall be entitled to the same remedies against such deputy or personal representative as are given against an officer. If any person against whom a fee-bill is issued under this section makes an affidavit that the fee was paid to the officer in his lifetime, and produces the affidavit to the officer having the fee-bill for collection, such officer shall forthwith return the feebill and affidavit to the person who issued it, and the same shall thereafter be collectible by action only, as other debts.
