- Q. Wife is living and the husband passed away, they acquired 5 houses together can she sale the houses without a succession
- A: If the property is only in the name of the wife then she can sell the property without a succession. If the deceased ((his estate) is entitled to any portion of the sale proceeds then it would be settled up in a succssion. If the husband's name is on the property then a succession will have to be open in order to sell his portion of the property.

Good luck.

If the defendant is not located in the county where the judgment was obtained, then you may have to file something in the county where the defendant is located in order to judicially collect on the judgment if the defendant does not voluntarily pay. Again, it is best to sit down with a collection lawyer in your area to discuss your specific situation and see what he/she ... Read More
