A creditor who has a property right in or claim against a decedent's estate is an interested person under Minn. Stat. § 524.1-201(32) (2012), and therefore has standing to petition for a determination of descent under Minn. Stat. § 525.31 (2012). A judgment creditor of an heir has a property right in a decedent's estate if the judgment can be satisfied by the heir's inherited property.
