What happens when if someone wins a lawsuit against you and they die?

Question

I lost my job in Ohio and was evicted four years ago. The landlord died last month.

Answer 1

i guess everything stays how it is

Answer 2

The judgment would become part of the landlord's estate. Whether the heirs take action on the judgment is up to them (they might not even know about it). I don't believe anyone can proceed with garnishment proceedings since that's something the landlord would have had to do four years ago.

Judgments do expire in some jurisdictions and must be revived. I don't know what the legal requirements are in Ohio, but you could easily check.
