[WSBAPT] PR's Creditor's Claim

[Douglas Bratt]

Paul:

Clearly, yes.  And........

This has the look and feel of a situation where the responsibility of the PR to recognize his/her fiduciary duties to all possibly affected creditors and eventual distributees of the Estate is in direct opposition to the self-interest the PR has in trying to collect his/her Creditor's Claim, now outlawed by statute.

Conflict of interest and independent legal counsel issues need to be paid attention to.

For the PR to brusquely deny the personal claim of the PR won't feel good to the PR, but that's the way it is.

Good Luck.

Subject: [WSBAPT] PR's Creditor's Claim

Listmates, is a Personal Representative's own Creditor's Claim (for nursing services rendered to the decedent) subject to the standard two year statute of limitation for all claims to be filed against the estate?

Have a great weekend and GO HAWKS.
