| Probate: can somebody PLEASE Help
What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas I am in a probate case in Texas over my deceased mothers estate. It has been going for 1 1/2 years now. Most of the complaints have been settled up to now. However, there are two big remaining issues left. 600 shares of Exxon Mobile stocks. My stepfather acquired 38 shares in 1984. 10 years after his marriage to my mother. He is arguing to claim these stocks a separate property but can provide no evidence they were a gift. Also the home is in the same contest. His lawyer does not want this to get before the court because they know they will loose. I filed a contest to the inventory so he counterfiled with a motion to require a 4000.00 security for costs. I cant pay that. If the judge grants it and I dont pay it within 20 days, I loose a big portion of her estate. Please somebody help. I am having to do this Pro Se. I cant afford to hire an attorney. They want too much money up front. I have little time left, could someone please offer some advice. |
