OPINION

VÁSQUEZ, Presiding Judge:

¶ 1 Michele Ader appeals the trial court’s entry of summary judgment in favor of the Estate of Dan Felger and his widow Carolyn Felger and its subsequent denial of her motion for a new trial. The primary issue presented in this appeal requires us to interpret A.R.S. § 14-3803 and A.R.S. § 14-3108 to determine whether Ader’s claims against the Estate are time-barred because no probate proceeding was initiated in Arizona within two years following Dan Felger’s death. For the reasons stated below, we affirm.
