Who pays for credit card debt when the decease has left no estate?

If the decease has credit card debt with no dollar value to his estate what happens to the debt?

Is it legal to live in the decease's house before the estate is settled?
It is certainly legal to do so. The executor must decide on what is appropriate and may charge rent.
How is the estate divided once the spouse of the decease dies?
In whatever way it was provided for. I am assuming that the deceased left everything to his or her spouse and now the spouse has died. If he or she had a will, trust, or other way to distribute the estate then it would be distributed according to his or her wishes. If not, then the estate would go through intestacy
Can executor of an estate drive the decease's car?
To limited degree. The executor is required to maintain and make sure the vehicle still runs, so some use is better than it sitting. If it is more than a token use, they should reimburse the estate for the use.
