[WSBAPT] Claim Against Estate

[James Spencer]

Greetings Listmates:

This is probably so obvious that I may be a fool for asking.

The following is not the exact scenario, but for illustration purposes only:
1) PR publishes notice to creditors, 4 months passes, PR deals with any presented claims.
2) PR then sells a car from the estate to someone and warrants that the car will not break down for six months.
3) The car breaks down after a month.

Without arguing about whether the PR should have done that, or had the right to do it, how does the buyer present a claim? Should the buyer file a creditor's claim, or do creditor's claims only relate to claims against the decedent rather than the estate?

Your thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks,

James W. Spencer, Esq.
