45-3-109: Statutes of limitation on decedent's claim for relief.

No statute of limitation running on a claim for relief belonging to a decedent which had not been barred as of the date of his death, shall apply to bar a claim for relief surviving the decedent's death sooner than four months after death. A claim for relief belonging to a decedent which, but for this section, would have been barred less than four months after death, is barred after four months unless the statute of limitation is otherwise tolled.
