2A:14-23.1.  Cause of action belonging to decedent
    No statute of limitation running on a cause of action belonging to a decedent which had not been barred as of the date of his death, shall apply to bar a cause of action surviving the decedent's death sooner than 6 months after  death.  A cause of action which, but for this section, would have been barred  less than 6 months after death, is barred 6 months after death, unless tolled.
