Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Kentucky
My mother passed away earlier this year and had no will. She had no money and I had to pay for the funeral. Since her death she has received a couple of small check made out to her. My question is what can I do with them?

Legally you can't cash them unless the state has been probated, and only the administrator/administratrix can do that and distribute it according to the laws of intestate.
