Q: Can the judge tell us why my mom owe money to a credit card company and what she used it for I'm going to probate court
Where going to court for my moms house and it say she owe 5275 to simm associates
A: The judge likely wouldn't know why your mom owes the money, nor would he or she have reason to. As personal representative, you could challenge the debt with the creditor.
A:
If you are 'going to court' without a lawyer, you are asking for issues. NO the 'judge' can't possibly know why your mother might owe money. Why would he? If a creditor has a lien against the property, or there is a judgment the court that ENTERED THE JUDGMENT would have records to establish the debt, but that in and of itself might not answer the question you ask either.
You NEED to have a lawyer review the paperwork and determine what is really going on. BEFORE you go to court, you need to get an idea of what is going on. Hire your own attorney ASAP.
