The receiver shall be subject to rule in the superior court of the county where he was appointed, as sheriffs are, and shall, under rule of the superior court and not under the order of the judge of the probate court, pay out moneys received by him as sheriffs do when there are conflicting claims to moneys in his hands. When there are no conflicting claims, the receiver shall settle all the claims and turn over any excess to the party legally entitled to the same.
