Notwithstanding the requirements of chapter 802b, a claim in tort, to the extent that it is within existing insurance coverage for such tort, brought in Superior Court against an estate, shall not be dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Nothing in this section shall allow for recovery beyond the insurance limits for such tort against the estate, nor allow for recovery from the fiduciary, the estate of the decedent or any creditor or beneficiary of the estate and recovery shall be limited to the insurance policy in effect at the time of the tort unless the creditor has otherwise complied with making a claim under chapter 802b.
