<p class="x_MsoNormal">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?</p>
