Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Indiana
If someone gives you all the money from a Roth IRA account, after the check cleared the bank, (and the person who gave me the money transferred all the funds into my checking account and then the person who gave me all the money dies), am I legally obligated as the Personal Representative from this person's estate to pay any or all of the dead person's medical bills due?

It might depend on how much time elapsed between your receipt of the money and the time of death. Transfers of assets in a short time before death can be set aside for the benefit of creditors. But the attorney who is handling the estate should be able to address all of those questions.
