Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Connecticut

A relative died last May, 2009 and left me and the conservator in his will. The consevator (now executor) states that he received two claims against the estate. He states that the claimants have not asked for a hearing, since the executor has contested the claims. He has now filed something in probate court which would bar the claimants from staking any claims on the estate. What is this process? Since my relative was a totally disabled veterans, I cannot understand how he would owe anything to the government. But nevertheless, can the executor contest this and bar them?

You and the executor can object to claims against the estate. You should go down to the probate court and ask the clerk to explain the process to you as the beneficiary.
