• W912678750 abstract "I. INTRODUCTION A recent decision from the Supreme Court of Missouri, In re Austin, held that victims of substantiated child abuse are reasonably ascertainable (1) The practical effect of Austin is to afford victims of substantiated child abuse an extra six months to file claims against the estate of his or her abuser. (2) While this decision is a small victory for victims of sexual abuse, the facts in Austin raise controversial questions about whether the unique circumstances surrounding claims of childhood sexual abuse warrant an exception to the one-year bar against a decedent's estate. This Note begins with an exploration of the unique factual circumstances that gave rise to the court's determination that victims of child abuse are reasonably ascertainable The Note goes on to discuss the constitutionality of creditor bars and the evolution of the reasonably ascertainable creditor in Missouri. Next, this Note provides an analysis of the Supreme Court of Missouri's reasoning in Austin and--finally--explores possible extensions of Austin while weighing the policy considerations associated with a broad extension of the court's holding to future claims of child abuse against decedents' estates. II. FACTS AND HOLDING In 2006, two female minors, R.M.N. and R.D.N., (3) alleged that Allen Austin sexually abused them. (4) The Division of Family Services (DFS) investigated the allegations and substantiated the minors' claims against Austin a 'preponderance of the evidence.' (5) Austin never appealed the substantiation. (6) Three years later, Austin died. (7) Cathy Snead, a beneficiary of Austin's estate, was appointed personal representative. (8) On August 26, 2009, Snead published notice that Austin's estate was open to creditor claims. (9) This publication initiated a six-month time period during which creditors could file claims against Austin's estate. (10) Following the opening of the estate, Snead, a social worker by trade, conducted an independent investigation of R.M.N. and R.D.N.'s allegations against Austin. (11) The investigation included interviews with various members of R.M.N. and R.D.N.'s extended family. (12) Throughout the course of Snead's investigation, she did not contact the minors, their father, (13) or DFS. (14) Snead's investigative work led her to determine that R.M.N. and R.D.N.'s 2006 sexual assault claims were fictitious. (15) Despite Snead's knowledge that the allegations were substantiated by DFS, Snead used her personal knowledge of the allegations to conclude that R.M.N. and R.D.N. were not creditors with a colorable claim and were therefore not required to receive actual notice upon the opening of Austin's estate. (16) Eight months following the date on which Snead first published notice of the estate's opening, R.M.N. and R.D.N.'s (the minors) father filed claims against the estate in the Circuit Court of Gentry County as the minors' next friend. (17) The claims included counts for intentional infliction of emotional distress, assault, battery, sexual abuse, invasion of privacy, and civil false arrest. (18) However, the court disallowed the claims against the estate, citing the six-month statutory bar in Missouri Revised Statutes Section 473.360. (19) In response, the minors' father petitioned the court to reclassify the claims as an adversary proceeding. (20) Snead filed a motion to dismiss the minors' claims against Austin's estate, arguing that the claims were filed more than six months after August 26, 2009--the day on which Snead first published notice of the opening of the estate--and were, therefore, untimely. (21) Further, Snead argued that the minors' claims did not meet an exception to the statutory bar (22) and that the minors were not known or reasonably ascertainable creditors. (23) The Circuit Court of Gentry County sustained Snead's motion, and the minors' father filed a timely appeal. …" @default.
