ESTATE OF DAVID L. JONES, Deceased (17-2143/A) — The administrator, the decedent’s brother, seeks to compromise causes of action arising from the decedent’s death and judicially account for the settlement proceeds. The decedent died intestate on May 27, 2015 allegedly as the result of medical malpractice. The decedent’s distributees are two children who were both over the age of 21 at the time of his death. Under the circumstances presented, including the consents of both children and the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance, and the lack of any other unpaid debts or claims presented herein, the court grants the request to allocate the entire settlement proceeds to the wrongful death cause of action. Disbursements, and counsel fees pursuant to Judiciary Law §474-a, are allowed in the sum requested. The sum of 54,820.75 is to be paid to the petitioner in reimbursement of the decedent’s funeral expenses. As requested, the sum of $21,277 is to be paid to the New York City Department of Social Services in payment of its claim for the decedent’s child support arrears. As agreed to, the net distributable proceeds are to be paid to the two children in equal shares. Decree signed. May 13, 2021
