Which of the following is not a legal representative of a deceased person merely by holding the described status?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Section 2(11) of the Code of Civil Procedure defines a legal representative as a person who in law represents the estate of a deceased person, and expressly includes an "Intermeddler". "Executor and administrators" and "A surviving Hindu coparcener representing the deceased's interest in joint family property" can fall within it, but a "Creditor" merely claiming payment from the estate does not, by that fact alone, represent it.
