§ 3119. 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 division or Division
4 (relating to bank deposits and collections), 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 that the person
notified may come in and defend and 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.
