An heir does not have any authority over the distribution under a will. Once the estate has been filed for probate the executor is provided with that authority by the court. The executor can take suggestions about how the personal property should be divided and should take care to set personal feelings aside and be fair about the distribution. However, making the distribution of the estate is the executor's legal responsibility.

What to do with a will when someone dies?

You must first be certain that what you have is the original (and not a copy) of the Will and that this is the LAST version of the person's Will. The Will usually appoints an executor who is responsible for carrying out what the Will sets out. The Will should be given to the executor(s) along with the death certificate and all the information you can find relating to the persons bank accounts, shares and property holdings (all that the deceased owned). The executor(s) will then prove the Will in a court of probate and once that has been done and any outstanding taxes and debts have been settled, they will distribute the estate (the dead persons property) as the Will instructed.

What is difference between Cash dividend and share repurchase?

A cash dividend is a distribution of money from a company's profits to its shareholders on a per-share basis. Shareholders receive the dividend in cash, which they can choose to reinvest or use as they wish. On the other hand, share repurchase is when a company buys back its own shares from the market, reducing the number of outstanding shares. This can increase the value of the remaining shares, as well as potentially benefit shareholders through capital gains if they choose to sell their shares back to the company.
