contesting executorship??
What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TX
I wrote into this forum 5/5/09 about sister abusing poa over my mother. We belately followed advice given by latigo.Sister turned it into a money battle by blocking everything we attempted to do using my mothers money.We(3 brothers) decided it was not in mother best interests to waste her money and decided to put gaurdianship on hold. Sister has been doing everything possible to prevent any kind of audit or accounting.Since she was being so secretive we reported her to family protective services for financial abuse of the elderly.FP started an investigation about a week before my mother died.I think the investigation may still be going on but am not sure about anything.A week after mother died sister either quit or got laid off from her job.She sent us all an email saying to leave her alone to get house ready to sell and to file will.I have seen the will and it leaves everything among 4 sibling to be split evenly.
My questions are:
1 When does she have to produce copy of the will?( I emailed her a request for a copy a week ago no response yet)
2 We think she has her son, sons girlfriend and baby living there.We also think he is wanted in another state for failure to appear.Is this legal?
3 We are think about contesting executorship as we think she wants to punish us for for not agreeing with the way she has handled finances.(there is roughly 250k less of moms assets we have no way of knowing which were legitimate since she was never accountable to anyone)
4 When does she have to file will for probate??
5 How can we keep her from dragging her feet?
Any help would be appreciated.
