any distributee or legatee owes the estate any debt, contracted with the decedent in his lifetime

Section 43-2-517 Appointment and compensation of special guardian. The jurisdiction of the
probate court to make partial or final settlements or distributions of the estates of decedents
is not affected by the fact that the executor or administrator making the settlement is also
guardian of any heir or distributee, devisee or legatee of the decedent; but in such case
the court must appoint a special guardian, without bond, to represent such heir or distributee,
devisee or legatee on the settlement and distribution; and, upon final settlement, any decree
to which such ward may be entitled must be rendered against the executor or administrator
in the name of the special guardian for the use of the ward; and thereafter the executor or
