Yes it is. It would pass through the Credtor's will; if no will, then by the laws of intestate succesion.

Yes, the judgment is still enforceable. You will need to file a claim in the judgment debtor's probate proceedings. I would be pleased to assist you with this process.

Mr. Selik is correct, Mr. Wiener has confused the debtor and creditor.

Yes. It becomes part of the decedent's estate.
