If a statute of limitations defense is not waived, a claim that was barred by a statute of limitations at the time of the decedent's death shall not be allowed or paid.\n\nThe running of a statute of limitations measured from an event other than death or publication for a claim against a decedent is suspended during the 4 months following the decedent's death but resumes after that time as to a claim not barred under this part.\n\nFor purposes of a statute of limitations, the proper presentation of a claim under section 3804 is equivalent to commencement of a proceeding on the claim.","path":["MI Code","Chapter 700","Act Act-386-of-1998"],"source_url":"https://www.legislature.mi.gov/Laws/MCL?objectName=mcl-700-3802","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:31Z","sha256":"f5e3c7213474c3a56f9474fbf31d7afc55fa80bf51a21273f4b87b57c58395f8","source_id":"us-mi","stale":false,"prev":"us-mi/mich.-comp.-laws-700.3801","next":"us-mi/mich.-comp.-laws-700.3803"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
