§ 318. Allowance to children after payment of debts
Before any partition or division of an estate among the heirs or beneficiaries by will, an allowance may be made for the necessary expenses of support and maintenance of the children of the decedent until they reach 18 years of age. The Probate Division of the Superior Court may order the executor or administrator to retain sufficient estate assets for that purpose, except where some provision is made by will for their support.
