What is the name of your state?New York State
A second cousin passed away in March 2004. Instructions for her funeral arrangements with my name on it was found by a detective along with hand written unwitnessed wills naming me as executrix and also giving me the power of attorney. I buried her according to her wishes. So far only one very old offical will (through an attorney) was found. The executive named on this will passed away years ago. This matter was given to probate court in Queens Cty. What happens now? Does the court handle the whole estate or do they appoint an administrator? If they do, how do they choose one? Since I paid for the funeral and would like reimbursement, I'm wondering how long it will be before I get reimbursed. Also, other than maybe 2 first cousins and several second cousins still living there are no other living relatives. Thank you for your time.
