As in one of your previous threads:

As in your previous thread...

The brother is not the executor until the will is filed with the court, accepted as valid by the court, and the brother is appointed as the executor by the court.

The nominated executor probably has some leeway before receiving that appointment, but only to make certain that the estate's assets are secured.

If you don't like what is happening, then get down to the court and [file to open probate and be appointed as executor] object to your brother's appointemnt.

And, in response to your post yesterday:

Your brother does not have to hold a meeting with you and your sisters.
