You're still legally dead, judge tells Fostoria man

Small things amuse small minds.

As Rome (the US) burns!

The point is, the ruling is ridiculous. The government knows he isn't dead, so he shouldn't be. What would be the legal situation if he now went out and murdered somebody? By every definition of the law, a dead man can't murder.

The Judge based on ruling on the 3 year SOL in;

2121.08 Administering estate when decree vacated.

(A) The probate court may at any time within a three-year period from the date of the decree establishing the death of a presumed decedent, upon proof satisfactory to the court that the presumed decedent is in fact alive, vacate the decree establishing the presumption of death. After the decree has been vacated all the powers of the executor or administrator of the presumed decedent cease, but all proceedings had and steps taken with respect to the administration of the estate of the presumed decedent prior to the vacating of the decree remain valid. The executor or administrator of the estate of the presumed decedent who is found to be alive shall settle the account of the executor's or administrator's administration down to the time of the vacating of the decree and shall transfer all assets remaining in the possession or under the control of the executor or administrator to the person for whom the executor or administrator is acting, or to that person's authorized agent or attorney.


The Ohio Probate Code has NO bearing on the Ohio CRIMINAL Code, TITLE 29.

Even arguably, if it did, since the feds and the other states are seperate sovereign's, why do they legally have to recognize ohio law for criminal law purposes??
