Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Alabama

While it is possible that an administrator could make a claim against the property (or against other assets still in the estate that you are to receive), normally in Alabama, the property that passes through an estate passes with the mortgages, liens or other items attached which causes question as to why it was paid off to begin with. There are many other facts that would have to be evaluated to properly answer your question, however, from the few facts that you have stated, I would say you have a very good defense if they attempt to force you to repay the amounts. You need to contact an attorney who handles probate and estate matters to fully discuss this matter.
