[WSBAPT] Is DSHS cut off by Notice to Creditors

[Donna Calf Robe]

I routinely deny DSHS claims if they are outside of the time period to file a claim.  When rejected, DSHS always files a "withdrawal of claim". They have never challenged a rejection.

No one has responded yet.  I believe this question has come up before.  I think the State is treated like any other creditor, so it should be precluded from coming after the estate or any heirs.  However, it would be nice if someone has actually dealt with this.

Listmates;

DSHS was given actual notice of a pending probate with the required time for any claim to be filed.  Notice to creditors was also published.  Office of Financial Recovery did not file any claim.  Creditor's claim period has expired; is DSHS prohibited from pursuing recovery against remaining estate assets?
