Can i remove CRA information as authorized user after primary card holder dies?

 I recently looked up my credit report.  Transunion is listing one of my deceased husbands Chase Credit cards as an  "Adverse Account".  

  • Responsibility: Authorized Account
  • Remarks: Closed by Credit Grantor, Unpaid balance charged off.

Can i have this account removed off my credit report by initiating a dispute with Transunion?  Do i have to do or say anything specific with the dispute?

 

Thanks in advance

Yes you should be able to get it removed, just use some form of the phrase "not responsible for the account"
