A person summoned as trustee, who has contracted to deliver specific personal property to the defendant at a certain time and place, shall not be compelled thereby to deliver it at any other time or place. He or she may tender it at the time and place mentioned in the contract, and shall retain possession thereof, subject to the order of the court in the trustee process, unless he or she has been previously adjudged a trustee on account thereof.
