§ 2113.88.

(A) The fiduciary may withhold from any property distributable to any person interested

in the estate the amount of tax attributable to the person's interest.  If the property in possession of the fiduciary and distributable to any person interested

in the estate is insufficient to satisfy the proportionate amount of the tax determined

to be due from that person, the fiduciary may recover the deficiency from that person.  If the property is not in the possession of the fiduciary, the fiduciary may recover

from any person interested in the estate the amount of the tax apportioned to that

person in accordance with this section by filing a complaint to recover the tax in

the probate court that has jurisdiction of the administration of the estate. (B) If the property held by the fiduciary is distributed prior to final apportionment

of the tax, the distributee shall provide a bond or other security for the apportionment

liability in the form and amount prescribed by the fiduciary, with the approval of

the probate court that has jurisdiction of the administration of the estate.
