girlfriend of deceased taking us to court


What is the name of your state? indiana

father-in-law's girlfriend is taking son to court to get him removed as personal rep. of the estate. it is set-up where every thing goes thru the court,lawyer,and personal rep.of estate.

she is filing to have him removed because she wants her funeral expenses back,she volunteered to pay( claiming shes a creditor). and she wants to be put in charge.

we have done everything our lawyer has told us to do so far. and lawyer is suppose to be dealing with her(getting papers and stuff she won't give us.property is on the market to be sold . there is no money to pay her back even,until the property sells(which she knows there isnt any beings she took all the money). which son's lawyer was suppose to be taken care of getting her claim threw out.

we have all our paper work gathered up to take to court with us,just wandering what her chances of winning were.

Ask your attoney since you already have one.

The ONLY thing I will tell you at this point is this. Since your husband is a relative and already has been appointed personal rep of the estate, it would take a lot (such as illegal activity) for him to be removed. And a 'girl-friend' will be way down on the list behind other blood relatives.

Let your attorney handle the matter and tell girl-friend she will get her money as soon as the house sells.

One other thing. Is she living in the home now? If so, WHY?

The reason she has giving for wanting him out are silly and not legally justifiable, so she is going to lose. How stupid can she be--the estate will have money to pay when the property sells, and you all should go ahead and reimburse her for the funeral expenses, since that is an expense that the estate is legally supposed to pay for.
