ESTATE OF JOSEPH GOLDMAN, Deceased (13/2465/G) — The administrator, the decedent’s son, seeks to distribute from his attorneys’ escrow account the remaining proceeds of causes of action settled in the Supreme Court, New York County, before a Special Master. The causes of action arose from the decedent’s exposure to asbestos. The supreme court order, inter alia, directed the payment of counsel fees and disbursements.

The decedent died intestate on September 9, 2013. The decedent’s distributees are the petitioner and a daughter. Similar applications were approved previously. Underthe circumstances presented, including the consents of the daughter and the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance, and the lack of any unpaid debts or claims presented herein, the court grants the request to allocate 90 percent of the net distributable proceeds to the personal injury cause of action and the balance to the wrongful death cause of action.
