143.881. Transferees. — 1. The liability at law or in equity, of a transferee of property of a taxpayer for any tax, addition to tax, penalty, or interest due under sections 143.011 to 143.996, shall be assessed, paid and collected in the same manner and subject to the same provisions and limitations as in the case of the tax to which the liability relates except as hereinafter provided in this section. The term "transferee" includes donee, heir, legatee, devisee, and distributee.

2. In the case of the liability of an initial transferee, the period of limitation for assessment of any liability expires one year after the expiration of period of limitation against the transferor; in the case of the liability *of a transferee* of a transferee, it expires one year after the expiration of the period of limitation against the preceding transferee, but not more than three years after the expiration of the period of limitation for assessment against the original transferor.

3. If before the expiration of the time provided in this section for the assessment of the liability the director of revenue and the transferee have consented in writing to its assessment after such time, the liability may be assessed at any time prior to the expiration of the period agreed upon or an extension thereof. For the purpose of determining the period of limitation on credit or refund to the transferee of overpayments of tax made by the transferor of which the transferee is legally entitled to credit or refund, such agreement and any extension thereof shall be deemed an agreement or extension referred to in subsection 3 of section 143.801. If the agreement is executed after the expiration of the period of limitation for assessment against the taxpayer with reference to whom the liability of such transferee arises, then in applying the limitations under subsection 2 of section 143.801 on the amount of the credit or refund, the periods specified in subsection 1 of section 143.801 shall be increased by the period from the date of such expiration to the date of the agreement.

4. If any person is deceased, the period of limitation for assessment against such person shall be the period that would be in effect had death not occurred.
