Kindle Schneider, as Temporary Administrator for the Estate of Cynthia Miles, Decendant v. Tarrah Holliday, Arnp…

Summary

The court held that the estate's wrongful-death action was timely because the limitations period did not begin until a court declared Miles dead. Because Miles suffered no known discrete physical injury when she disappeared and remained legally presumed alive, the cause of action accrued only upon the judicial determination of death. The court affirmed the denial of summary judgment and remanded for further proceedings.
