This. Around here, you would open a probate, publish a notice in a "legal" newspaper to potential creditors of the estate, that sets the window for filing claims against the estate.

How old was your dad at time of accident? He was almost 90 at time if accident?

I know in TN there is a two year timeframe to file body injury suit. I wonder if plaintiff has almost two years of medical bills as evidence of the injuries to substantiate their claim. I can only guess.

He filed the lawsuit before the accident? Did he have ESP?
