Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Pennsylvania

No. The estate of the deceased person consists ONLY of property owned by the deceased person, either solely or jointly with another.

However, the problem with personal property is that unless its a car, then there is no real title to it. So how are you going to prove that the deceased was holding your property?

Not impossible but it may be problematic. Depending on what the item was and your relationship with the executor, you can try writing to the executor, explain how it came to be that the deceased was holding your property and politely request that she return it. If she says no, you file a claim with the estate and then follow it up by filing suit if she denies the claim.

I suggest that you pay for a consult with an attorney who practices in the county where the estate is pending to see how best to recovery your property.
