If no filing
timely there will be a bar. If there is a timely filing then you could begin negotiating. When negotiating decedent’s debts, don’t forget the family allowance (FA) (which now in King County is I believe over $700,000.00). I have used the FA as leverage
for creditor’s who took fifty cents on the dollar. I explained we had only so much money and that money could be paid mostly to lawyers in a Family Allowance hearing or they could agree to take less.

<b>Subject:</b> [WSBAPT] Judgement - insolvent estate<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Married couple with Wills and CPA. H gets a Judgement against him. H dies and W does not probate will but has a CPA. W dies and heirs open probate and try to sell real property only to find a Judgement against H. Judgement would make estate
insolvent. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Two questions come to mind. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">1. Doesn't Judgement attach only to H's share? Does a probate need to be opened for H's estate? <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2. Can W 's PR simply request Judgement debtor reduce Judgement to H's share at time of H's death? <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks Mike <o:p></o:p></p>
