On the title to what? If the deceased is not on the title, they probably have no interest in it, so the estate will have nothing to do with that property. If the individual inherited the property from another estate, then the executor, appointed by the court, will take charge of the interests and follow the will or the law in the execution of their duties and the distribution of the assets of the estate.

The nearest of blood kin followed by the nearest of marital kin followed by siblings. The probate court can appoint anyone that may apply for the task, as well.

In New Jersey is the surviving spouse cars solely in the deceased names?

In New Jersey a car is the property of the person listed on the Certificate of Title. If the car is in the surviving spouse's name then it is not in the deceased spouse's estate. If the car was in the name of the deceased spouse, then it is in the decedent's estate, even if they both considered it to be the surviving spouse's car and was used solely by that spouse. The sole determining factor is whose name is on the Certificate of Title.

How do you register car with no title or will when previous owner is dead?

You can not register a car that you do not own. The car is owned by the estate of the deceased individual. The estate gets the title and then you buy it from the estate. Some legal process must occur to distribute the estate of a person who has died. Usually, someone is legally named the executor of the estate and had authority to settle the estate in a manner consistent with a will, if one exists. If no will, exists, the executor still has the power to sell or give away the items owned by the deceased. Technically, it is the estate which owns the car, with or without a title. If you want to become the onwer of the car you must have it transferred by the estate. It is the estate (and the executor is the agent for the estate) who must acquire title to the car. With appropriate documentation, such as a certificate of death and legal documentation identifying the executor, the executor can request a new title from the State Bureau of Motor Vehicles. That title may be in the name of the deceased or in the name of the estate. The estate owns the car. Only after the estate has the title can the estate sell or gift the car to someone.
