If the claim is secured, the security shall be described. Failure to describe correctly the security, the nature of any uncertainty, and the due date of a claim not yet due does not invalidate the presentation made. The claimant may commence a proceeding against the personal representative in any court where the personal representative may be subjected to jurisdiction, to obtain payment of his claim against the estate, but the commencement of the proceeding must occur within the time limited for presenting the claim. No presentation of claim is required in regard to matters claimed in proceedings against the decedent which were pending at the time of his death. Thus, a claim can be presented by delivery, mailing, filing, or suit.
Presentation simply denotes notice of the claim to the personal representative.
This claim was presented by mailing. Evidence that a letter was mailed raises a disputable presumption that it was received by the addressee. A party against whom a presumption is directed has the burden of proving that the nonexistence of the presumed fact is more probable than its existence. The estate offered no evidence to show that the mailings were not received. Allen Kassion did not testify.
