What is the name of your state? Ohio
If the man I live with orderd furniture and etc. on his credit cards the day befor he died and it is delivered say a week later can I keep the furniture as he bought it for me as a gift,
Can i just ignore the bills for it as they are not mine.
What can I do, I cant pay for it as I live on a s.s.check and alll the other furniture was sold and I can never aford to buy furniture as I am too poor?

So you'd be ok with stealing the furniture and letting the rest of us pay for it with higher interest rates???


By the way, when they get around to suing your boyfriend, then finding out that YOU accepted the furniture, KNOWING FULL WELL he was dead, you'll need a really good (1) criminal attorney and (2) civil attorney... because they'll come after you from both ends.

You have not provided nearly enough information.

Who is the executor of his Estate? Who is the money owed to? The credit card company, or the furniture company?

How did he die? Was it unexpected? Was he ill at the time he ordered the furniture and charged it? How would you prove that the furniture was a gift to you and does not belong to the Estate?

The furniture stores are NOT going to let you return the merchandise because it WAS purchased prior to death (just not delivered), they do not want it back. You need to contact the credit card cos. and notify them that he is deceased. That there are recent purchases as well. Do this in writing with a copy of the death certificate. this will cover your tail...I doubt that they will be sending reps. from BofA, Chase, CitiCard to pick it up either.

Is that what the purchase contract said??? How do you know?

She won't want to... she'd rather have the furniture. And I bet you dollars to donuts that whoever the finance company is, they will in fact rescind that contract given the circumstances, however, as Las has indicated, there may not be enough facts in the story to make that determination.

However, on its face... the OP could be in big trouble.

oh my...THIS is scary.

Yes...absolutely...I was a mgr. of Beneficial CA. Inc. in my early career years and grad. to mtgs. and YES...we would have rescinded the contract AND repoed the furniture (GAWD, I'M GLAD) I got out the "finance co. biz" lol

However, she stated that the furn. was purchased by credit cards. Thus no contract for "furniture" but only it's warranty and receipt... Only now...in my experience...I smell FRAUD. Out and out fraud from this woman. I will BET ON IT "dollars to donuts" she used his c.c.'s and he IS still alive.

It dosen't matter weather you are on S.S.I. or not. You still can't steal esp from a dead person. Don't you have any respect for yourself or your dead friend. At the least you should feel shame for being so blatenly selfish, for even thinking you could just keep something that legally belongs to a dead person, not you. Send it back and go to church and ask God to forgive your greedy heart. xkacyx

And ... somewhere there is an executor or administrator of the boyfriend's estate (if he has, in fact, died, which appears to be questionable) who is required to collect the assets of the estate to satisfy all outstanding debts, including the credit cards.

If the executor/administrator is also a beneficiary, that person is not going to be too pleased about having to liquidate assets which would otherwise go to the heirs to pay the outstanding debts while not getting the furniture in the estate to liquidate.
