SURVIVAL ACTION
A survival action arises out of the actual injury, not out of the death. A survival action is not a new cause of action like a wrongful death action and the action belongs to the decedent's estate. The estate is substituted for the decedent, and its recovery is based on the rights of action that the decedent had at the time of his or her death. For example, if a person is injured in a car accident due to the negligence of another driver, and then dies several months later due to the injuries sustained in that accident, the person's estate is permitted to pursue a survival action. In a survival action, the personal representative of the decedent can recover the same damages the decedent could have recovered if he or she had survived.
Damages that can be recovered in a survival action include decedent's pain and suffering, medical expenses, funeral expenses, lost wages and any other damages caused by the negligent party. Since in a survival action, the action belongs to the decedent's estate, the damages recovered are subject to estate and inheritance taxes as well as the claims of creditors. The damages in a survival action are distributed according to the decedent's will if he died testate or according to the intestate laws if he died intestate.
