If a person acquires from the person named in the certificate of inheritance as heir, by a legal transaction, an object of the inheritance, a right in such object, or a release from a right belonging to the inheritance, the contents of the certificate of inheritance are deemed in their favour to be correct as far as the presumption under section 2365 extends, unless they know of the incorrectness or know that the probate court has demanded the return of the certificate of inheritance for incorrectness.
