§12A-3-119.
   
                      NOTICE OF RIGHT TO DEFEND ACTION
                                      
   In an action for breach of an obligation for which a third person is
   answerable over pursuant to this article or Article 4 of this title,
   the defendant may give the third person written notice of the
   litigation, and the person notified may then give similar notice to
   any other person who is answerable over. If the notice states (i) that
   the person notified may come in and defend and (ii) that failure to do
   so will bind the person notified in an action later brought by the
   person giving the notice as to any determination of fact common to the
   two litigations, the person notified is so bound unless after
   seasonable receipt of the notice the person notified does come in and
   defend.
