Hopefully this is posted in the right area or could be moved??
My mother-in-law is being accused of defamation by her younger brother, who is an attorney.
Long story - short...Mother-in-law's elderly parents lived in Florida and passed away about four years ago. M-I-L has been trying to get an accounting of funds from her brother who is the executor and an attorney. He has since moved to South Carolina (m-i-l lives in New Jersey) and keeps dodging the accounting so m-i-l got a lawyer and tried to get accounting. Lawyer in SC slipped up and missed some dates now the case has been dismissed.
M-i-L's brother is now accusing her of defamation for supposedly calling family services on him when he lived with parents in FL and for the lawsuit in SC.
He is suing her in Fed Court in SC. She has no money but does have a house.
