Estate of Eyler
The decedent, Charles Eyler, received the proceeds from a personal injury settlement while living apart from his wife, Katherine Eyler. After his death, Katherine claimed the funds were community property. Charles's mother and sister disagreed, arguing that the funds were Charles's separate property because he received them while separated from Katherine. The trial court ruled that the funds are community in character because Charles's physical injury occurred while he and Katherine were living together. Court agree and affirm.
