N.J. Stat. Ann. § 2A:19-11

Until the inventory, valuation and bond required by this chapter are filed, the assignee shall not proceed to the discharge of his trust under the general assignment, further than may be necessary for the preservation of the assigned estate; but the court, before such inventory, valuation and bond are filed, may authorize the assignee to perform such other acts in the administration of the trust, and upon such terms, as it may deem necessary for the protection of the trust.
