Estate of Balfegreen
nyappdiv · 1990 · cited in 2 New York opinions naming this issue, 1997–2002
2 sentences

2002Claims Against an Estate By letter dated January 10, 2002, the court asked both sides whether the proceeding commenced by the estate should be considered a proceeding to determine the validity of the People’s judgment and whether the Supreme Court should remit this matter to the Surrogate’s Court. 9 Surrogate’s Court Procedure Act § 1809 provides that an estate may ask the court to determine the validity of a claim if the claimant has not commenced an action to enforce the claim (compare, Estate of Balfe, 161 AD2d 1132 , with Matter of Good-son, 231 AD2d 66 ).

1997While we agree with this conclusion on the stated facts, we do not agree with that court’s subsequent suggestion that if a section 1809 proceeding is barred by its terms from being brought if an action to enforce the claim has been instituted, then "the converse should also be true,” i.e., an action under section 1810 should be barred by the same consideration (Estate of Balfe, supra, at 1133).
