Best Answer

The account would have become part of the estate. The executor was issued "Letters Testamentary" when they were appointed by the court. Those letters authorize the executor to withdraw the funds and close the account. Contact the bank to find the department that will assist you in closing the account. It will require certified copies of the letters from the court. The proceeds from the bank account should de distributed according to the provisions in the will.

Can a person be an executor to the estate he owes money to?

Yes. Nothing prohibits a testator from choosing a person as his or her executor simply because there is a debt between them. In the matter of who is to be the executor, courts go to great lengths to honor the wishes of the deceased. The beneficiaries will be able to challenge in court the manner in which the executor handled repayment. An executor might be held to a higher standard of proof if he or she disputes the claim in full or in part than any other creditor might be held to. In other words, although it appears that there is a conflict of interest in the executor handling his/her own claim, there are remedies available to beneficiaries to ensure proper handling of that claim that do not thwart the decedent's personal choice of the person to be the executor.
