Re: Estate of Heather M Kiraly
File Number 2102-0190
Court Number: Cumberland-Orphans-2102-0190
Dear Mr. Bangs:
The Department of Revenue received the Petition for Approval of Settlement Claim to be filed on behalf of
the above-referenced Estate in regard to a wrongful death and survival action. It was forwarded to this Bureau for
the Commonwealth's approval of the allocation of the proceeds paid to settle the actions.
Pursuant to the Petition, the 16 year old decedent died as a result of a motor vehicle accident. The sole
heirs to decedent's estate are her parents. Therefore, any proceeds paid to settle the survival action would pass to
decedent's parents and would be subject to a zero percent inheritance tax rate. 72 P.S. §9116(a)(1.2). Accordingly,
regardless of the allocation of the subject proceeds, there would be no inheritance tax consequences.
Please be advised that based upon these facts and for inheritance tax purposes only, this Department has no
objection to the proposed allocation of the gross proceeds of this action, $12,600.00 to the wrongful death claim and
$1,400.00 to the survival claim. Proceeds of a survival action are an asset included in the decedent's estate and,
although subject to the imposition of a zero percent inheritance tax rate in this instance, they must be reported on
decedent's Pennsylvania inheritance tax return. 42 Pa.C.S.A. §8302; 72 P.S. §§9106, 9107. Costs and fees must be
deducted in the same percentages as the proceeds are allocated. In re Estate of Merryman, 669 A.2d 1059 (Pa.
Cmwlth. 1995).
I trust that this letter is a sufficient representation of the Department's position on this matter. As the
Department has no objections to the Petition, an attorney from the Department of Revenue will not be attending the
hearing regarding it. Please contact me if you or the Court has any questions or requires anything additional from
this Bureau. Finally, the approval of this allocation is limited to this estate and does not reflect the position that the
Department may take in any other proposed distribution of proceeds of a wrongful death / survival action.

Re: Estate of Heather M Kiraly
File Number 2102-0190
Court Number: Cumberland-Orphans-2102-0190
Dear Mr. Bangs:
The Department of Revenue received the Petition for Approval of Settlement Claim to be filed on behalf of
the above-referenced Estate in regard to a wrongful death and survival action. It was forwarded to this Bureau for
the Commonwealth's approval of the allocation of the proceeds paid to settle the actions.
Pursuant to the Petition, the 16 year old decedent died as a result of a motor vehicle accident. The sole
heirs to decedent's estate are her parents. Therefore, any proceeds paid to settle the survival action would pass to
decedent's parents and would be subject to a zero percent inheritance tax rate. 72 P.S. §9116(a)(1.2). Accordingly,
regardless of the allocation of the subject proceeds, there would be no inheritance tax consequences.
Please be advised that based upon these facts and for inheritance tax purposes only, this Department has no
objection to the proposed allocation of the gross proceeds of this action, $12,600.00 to the wrongful death claim and
$ 1,400.00 to the survival claim. Proceeds of a survival action are an asset included in the decedent's estate and,
although subject to the imposition of a zero percent inheritance tax rate in this instance, they must be reported on
decedent's Pennsylvania inheritance tax return. 42 Pa.C.S.A. §8302; 72 P.S. §§9106, 9107. Costs and fees must be
deducted in the same percentages as the proceeds are allocated. In re Estate of Merryman, 669 A.2d 1059 (Pa.
Cmwlth. 1995).
I trust that this letter is a sufficient representation of the Department's position on this matter. As the
Department has no objections to the Petition, an attorney from the Department of Revenue will not be attending the
hearing regarding it. Please contact me if you or the Court has any questions or requires anything additional from
this Bureau. Finally, the approval of this allocation is limited to this estate and does not reflect the position that the
Department may take in any other proposed distribution of proceeds of a wrongful death / survival action.

IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS
OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY,

ORPHANS' COURT DIVISION
NO. 21-02-0190
PETITION FOR COMPROMISE or SETTLEMENT OF SURVIVAL ACTION
AND NOW comes the Administratrix of the Estate of Heather M. Kiraly, Melinda A.
Kiraly, by and through her attorney, Michael L. Bangs, Esquire, and petitions the Court based
upon the following:
1. The Decedent is Heather M. Kiraly who died in a motor vehicle accident on December
13, 2001, at the age of sixteen (16) and whose residence upon death was at 826 Ridgewood
Drive, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. The Decedent died intestate.
2. The Administratrix of Decedent's estate is her mother, Melinda A. Kiraly who was
appointed as the Administratrix on February 21, 2002 by Letters of Administration, said Letters
of Administration having been duly advertised. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit A is a
true and correct copy of the Certificate of Grant of Letters of Administration and Proofs of
Publication.
3. The Decedent was a sixteen-year-old minor and student at the time of her death.
4. The sole potential heirs of the estate are her mother, Melinda A. Kiraly, and
potentially her father, Anthony Kiraly.
5. There are no creditors who have or made claims against the estate.
6. The facts and circumstances constituting the cause of action are that the Decedent was
a passenger in a vehicle driven by Mark J. Shannon. Mr. Shannon lost control of his vehicle
KIRALY COMPROMISE OF SETTLEMENT PETITION / DISK 46 / JUNE 20. 2002
while operating it in Cambria County, Pennsylvania, in Munster Township while traveling East
on State Route 22. As a result of the accident, another in'dividual along with Decedent was killed
and two others were seriously injured.
7. Erie Insurance Group provided an underinsured motorist coverage for the
Administratrix, Melinda A. Kiraly, which covered the Decedent in the total amount of
$100,00.00. Erie has tendered the policy limits. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit B is a
true and correct copy of that letter.
8. The only other source of potential insurance coverage is a $50,000.00 policy which
covered the driver's vehicle. Currently, all parties are negotiating a resolution of those policy
limits and they will be the subject of another Petition before this Court when that is resolved.
9. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit C is a proposed breakdown of the total
proceeds less counsel fees and expenses, plus a proposed apportionment between the survival
action and the wrongful death action.
10. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit D is a true and correct copy of a letter of
approval from the Department of Revenue authorizing the apportionment between the survival
action and wrongful death action.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests this Honorable Court to approve this Compromise or
Settlement in the amounts listed herein.

NO. 21-02-0190
PETITION FOR COMPROMISE or SETTLEMENT OF SURVIVAL ACTION
AND NOW comes the Administratrix of the Estate of Heather M. Kiraly, Melinda A.
Kiraly, by and through her attorney, Michael L. Bangs, Esquire, and petitions the Court based
upon the following:
1. The Decedent is Heather M. Kiraly who died in a motor vehicle accident on December
13, 2001, at the age of sixteen (16) and whose residence upon death was at 826 Ridgewood
Drive, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. The Decedent died intestate.
2. The Administratrix of Decedent's estate is her mother, Melinda A. Kiraly who was
appointed as the Administratrix on February 21, 2002 by Letters of Administration, said Letters
of Administration having been duly advertised. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit A is a
true and correct copy of the Certificate of Grant of Letters of Administration and Proofs of
Publication.
3. The Decedent was a sixteen-year-old minor and student at the time of her death.
4. The sole potential heirs of the estate are her mother, Melinda A. Kiraly, and
potentially her father, Anthony Kiraly.
5. There are no creditors who have or made claims against the estate.
6. The facts and circumstances constituting the cause of action are that the Decedent was

KIRALY COMPROMISE OF SETTLEMENT PETITION / DISK 46 / JUNE
while operating it in Cambria County, Pennsylvania, in Munster Township while traveling East
on State Route 22. As a result of the accident, another individual along with Decedent was killed
and two others were seriously injured.

$100,00.00. Erie has tendered the policy limits. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit B is a
true and correct copy of that letter.
8. The only other source of potential insurance coverage is a $50,000.00 policy which
covered the driver's vehicle. Currently, all parties are negotiating a resolution of those policy
limits and they will be the subject of another Petition before this Court when that is resolved.
9. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit C is a proposed breakdown of the total
proceeds less counsel fees and expenses, plus a proposed'apportionment between the survival
action and the wrongful death action.
10. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit D is a true and correct copy of a letter of
approval from the Department of Revenue authorizing the apportionment between the survival
action and wrongful death action.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests this Honorable Court to approve this Compromise or
Settlement in the amounts listed herein.

Dear Mr. Bangs:
Re: Estate of Heather M Kiraly
File Number 2102-0190
Court Number: Cumberland~Orphans.2102-0190
The Department of Revenue received the Petition for Approval of Settlement Claim to be filed on behalf of
the above-referenced Estate in regard to a wrongful death and survival action. It was forwarded to this Bureau for
the Commonwealth's approval of the allocation of the proceeds paid to settle the actions.
Pursuant to the Petition, the 16 year old decedent died as a result ora motor vehicle accident. The sole
heirs to decedent's estate are her parents. Therefore, any proceeds paid to settle the survival action would pass to
decedent's parents and would be subject to a zero percent inheritance tax rate. 72 P.S. §9116(a)(1.2). Accordingly,
regardless of the allocation of the subject proceeds, there would be no inheritance tax consequences.
Please be advised that based upon these facts and for inheritance tax purposes only, this Department has no
objection to the proposed allocation of the gross proceeds of this action, $ 90,000.00 to the wrongful death claim and
$ 10,000.00 to the survival claim. Proceeds ora survival action are an asset included in the decedent's estate and,
although sub3ect to the imposition of a zero percent inheritance tax rate in this instance, they must be reported on
decedent's Pennsylvania inheritance tax return. 42 Pa.C.S.A. §8302; 72 P.S. {}{}9106, 9107. Costs and fees must be
deducted in the same percentages as the proceeds are allocated. In re Estate of Merryman, 669 A.2d 1059 (Pa.
Cmwlth. 1995). "
I trust that this letter is a sufficient representation of the Department's position on this matter. As the
Department has no objections to the Petition, an attorney from the Department of Revenue will not be at'tending the
hearing regarding it. Please contact me if you or the Court has any questions or requires anything additional from
this Bureau. Finally, the approval of this allocation is limited to this estate and does not reflect the position that the
Department may take in any other proposed distribution of proceeds of a wrongful death / survival action.
