[WSBAPT] Creditor Claim

[Ben Wolff]

On an open account, SOL runs from date of last payment.  That's what you have to check.

  Subject: [WSBAPT] Creditor Claim


  I have an open probate where the creditor filed their creditor claim properly. However, the claim is for two small medical bills from 2005 and 2006. As far as I know, there have never been any collections proceedings or payments made on this during the decedent's lifetime.



  Off of the top of my head, I think that there is a 3 year statute of limitations or a 6 year statute of limitations if there is a contract. I think this claim is invalid because it is past the statute of limitations.



  I have never had this exact issue and I am sure this is very simple to anyone who has done this before. Do you reject the claim on the basis of being past the statute of limitations? Am I even right about that?
