A Douglas County family is trying to figure out what went wrong and why they lost a home to foreclosure. Family members said that a court appointed conservator was supposed to pay the bills on a home belonging to a deceased relative, but the home ended up in foreclosure.
David Brown said he heard about the foreclosure on his late father's house from a voicemail left by neighbor.
"There's a lot of activity over there it looks like their throwing everything on the front lawn," said Brown.
Brown's father, Dr. James Brown died in June. The estate was placed in the hands of a court-appointed conservator until the will could be worked out.
"Larry Smith, the conservator was supposed to preserve the estate. Obviously [he] hasn't done his job," said Brown.
The probate judge in the case, Hal Hamrick referred questions to Smith. Smith said he couldn't comment on the case.
