Automated Document Set for Vermont - making a formal claim against the estate
In the probate process, the 700-00003 Notice of Disallowance form is used when an estate's fiduciary formally rejects a creditor's claim against the estate. This occurs after the creditor has submitted a Written Statement of Claim, which typically happens following the initial probate proceedings and the filing of claims against the decedent's estate. It is crucial for the fiduciary to provide a clear and concise reason for the rejection of the claim.
Key situations that may trigger the need for this notice include:
Prior to issuing the Notice of Disallowance, the fiduciary should have created the estate's Inventory of Assets and possibly filed the Notice to Creditors form, making them aware of the timeline and process for submitting claims. Once the disallowance is sent, the creditor has the option to file a Petition for Allowance or initiate legal proceedings within the designated timeframe to contest the decision.
