In Re Estate of Pope

1 Two issues are tendered for our decision in this second appeal from denial of a hospitals quest that payment be ordered for the decedents last illness expenses without a timely statutory creditors claim: [1] Does Oklahoma law charge the estate representative with knowledge that the hospital where the decedent died as a paying patient was a potential creditor of the estate? and if so [2] Did the hospital effectively relinquish that which was its constitutional due actual notice under Oklahomas nonclaim statute? We answer the first question in the affirmative and the second in the negative.
