What is the name of your state? PA
My father died without the original will being found - We have a copy and it states that he leaves everything to his surviving children so it is almost the same as not having a will anyway. (My mom died over 10 years ago). I am 1 of 4 children. We cannot seem to agree on who should represent the family or become the executor. My questions:
1. If the heirs cannot agree on an executor - will the courts appoint one?
2. Can I petition the court to be named executor? I am the youngest sibling but was also my father's POA for the last 6 years. (He had severe dementia for years).
3. Is it possible for the Executor to not equally distribute the net funds in this situation?
If you need further information from me to help properly answer - please just let me know.
