What is the name of your state?
Missouri
I am the Executor of an estate with multiple beneficiaries. One of the beneficiaies is entitled to 1/4 of the proceeds from the sale of the house in this estate and refuses to sgin off on the sale. The property has been listed for almost a year and I feel fortunate that we have a Buyer willing to pay the apprasied value of the house which is $83,500.00. Her reason for not signing is that she feels she is entitled to a van that once belonged to her brother. She was not a beneficiary of her brother's estate. She is a beneficary of her brother's wife's estate.When he died he left his entire estate to his wife. This person is a beneficiary of his wife's estate. The van she is referring to was sold three years before this beneficary's sister -in-law passed away. I don't know how she can claim that it was a part of this estate, sincer her brother left it to his wife when he died. There are 10 other beneficiares who will divided the other 3/4 of the proceeds They are very upset with this person and want to know if they can do anything legally to make her sign off. Please Help!
