What does estate of the deceased mean?
The 'estate of the deceased' refers to all the property, real or personal, a person owned in their own name at the time of their death. That property is said to be their 'estate'. If the person left a will they are said to have died testate and their property will pass to their heirs according to the provisions of their will. If they had no will their estate will be considered to be an intestate estate and will pass to their next-of-kin according to the state laws of intestacy. An estate must be probated whether a person dies testate or intestate. As part of the probate process a notice is published that gives any creditors of the decedent an opportunity to file a claim. The debts of the decedent must be paid before any of their estate is distributed to the heirs.
