If the deceased left significant debts, creditors can file an objection to the succession order to ensure that the debts are covered before the estate is distributed to the heirs. This is because the inheritance is only distributed after the deceased’s debts are paid. Example: Jacob died while he owed a large sum to the bank. His children requested a succession order to divide his assets between them, but the bank filed an objection to the order on the grounds that the estate must first cover the debt.
