My mother died almost 4 years ago. My sister was named as the Executor and my youngest brother Co-Executor. My brother could not perform his job as Co-Executor at the time of my mothers death and my sister acquired Power Of Attorney to pay estate bills and disburse money my mother had in stocks that she owned. My mother also owned property and it was decided to sell the property and split the money 4 ways. My sister later allowed her son to live in the house and not pay full market value rent to the Estate for living in the house. My brother now wants to get involved in the Estate and find out exactly what has been paid out of the Estate account and what has been received by the Estate for rents and so forth. My sister has refused to send him records and any statements concerning the Estate. Since he is still the Co-Executor, does he have rights to this information and if so how would he go about forcing the Executor (my sister) to share any and all information concerning how this Estate has been handled over the last 3 years. He also worries that if our other brother and I decided to contest how this Estate has been handled, would he in fact be liable since to his knowledge, he is still listed as Co-Executor. He also wants to know if it is possible for him to take over the Estate and dispense with the propety or rent the property at a fair market value until it is sold. We live in New Jersey and this problem is driving all of us up the wall.
