R.I. Gen. Laws § 18-4-16: Payments or transfers to fiduciaries — Effect of misapplication by fiduciary.

A person who in good faith pays or transfers to a fiduciary any money or other property, which the fiduciary is authorized to receive, is not responsible for the proper application of the money or other property by the fiduciary; and any right or title acquired from the fiduciary in consideration of the payment or transfer is not invalid in consequence of a misapplication by the fiduciary.
