What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maryland
Hi everyone,
A small estate was opened as my mother's only asset is a beat up Toyota worth $500 according to MD register of wills. Her estate is insolvevent as she spent her life savings fighting cancer and the portion not covered by insurance are thousands.
I tried to sell the car to pay a creditor but no one wants it as it would costs too much to pass MD inspection. Can I donate the car to a charity? Or must I sell it even for scrap value even if I get only $50? I don't want to be liable for disposing of an asset.
Finally do I need to transfer the title to my name? I have the Letters of Adminstration showing ai am the personal rep. Thank you.
