In re Estate of Mueller

Summary

The Kansas Supreme Court affirmed the district court’s denial of a set‑off claim, holding that the confessed judgment arising from the settlement agreement is not a debt owed to Lorine Mueller’s estate because the agreement, under Nebraska law, bars any collection—including set‑off. Accordingly, the Court of Appeals decision reversing the district court is reversed and the estate’s assets are to be distributed without set‑off.
