The court dismissed the plaintiff's claim for payment of water supply and drainage fees owed by a deceased estate. The estate, lacking a legal representative, could not be held liable for debts incurred after the decedent's death without specific authorization. Consequently, the court ruled that the claim was inadmissible against the estate in its current state.
