My dad lived in assisted living in MA, but was hospitalized in March. He was dying, and told the facility he wasn't coming back. On April 9th he passed away. On the 13th his rent was paid thru the 30th of April. We moved out all of his belongs on April 27th. The assisted living facility wants to be paid from may 1st thru May 9th because of a 30 day notice clause. Do I have to pay the bill?
I've been executor now 3 times & found most do not file a claim or respond to executor within the required by probate law timeframe. Family / heirs waits a period of time & then closes out probate as per terms of the will when it makes sense to do so.
