What is the name of your state? WV
I’m the administrator of my fathers estate. My father did not leave a will and I was elected administrator. One of my siblings, one of the beneficiaries of the estate began removing items from my fathers residence. Despite my request that she desist she continued to remove items on a daily basis, a number of the items I know did not belong to her. I placed a lock on my father’s house to stop the pilferage. Initially my sibling knocked off the lock, but a visit from the police stopped further forced entry into the house. Now my sibling has had a lawyer send me a letter indicating she should have unsupervised access to the house in order to remove specified and unspecified items that she says belong to her from the home . I’m I required to allow her free access to the house.
A second question: My sibling removed two of my fathers un-cashed paychecks from his home following his death and cashed them for her own use. Can I force her to return the money to the estate.
