What happens if an inheritance through a credit union is paid does child support garnish
Aunt passed and left her nieces and nephews her assets but left it in all of the oldest names and my brother owes child support
Answer: Generally speaking, a probate estate cannot be distributed without giving notice to the Friend of the Court so that any unpaid child support can be satisfied. However, in a case like this one, where the assets were distributed directly to a family member who is not subject to the jurisdiction of the Friend of the Court, there is no restriction on that family member’s distribution of the assets.
