Yes. Until an executor is appointed by the court they have no power or authority. Once appointed they are obligated to settle the estate according to the provisions in the will and the state probate laws under the supervision of the court. An executor who abuses their authority or fails to perform their duties with honesty, integrity and expediency should be reported to the court. They can be removed and replaced and are personally liable for any damages caused by their actions.
So you can get a proper grade and not a failing one!
What are ethical issues in failing to propely cite authorities used in documents?
This could be ground for an action for removal of the executor. A personal representative, whether an executor of a will or a trustee of an estate, may be removed for failing to meet the responsibilities of the position. Any interested person can petition to remove an executor. An interested person is usually any present or future beneficiary or creditor who has a stake in the estate. The petition for removal may be combined with a request for appointing a new, alternative personal representative.
There are many reasons why an executor must be bonded, all relating to improper or unlawful performance by the executor. That could be by stealing, distributing property to the wrong beneficiary, failing to pay a creditor, paying creditors in the wrong order, failing to pay estate taxes, causing the waste of estate assets, failure to follow the provisions in the will, failure to perform their duties according to the law, etc.
The co-executor's rights are most likely limited to bringing an action to have the other co-executor removed for failing to fulfill the obligation to settle the estate expeditiously or to force the coexutor to perfom some ministerial act required to move the estate forward or be removed. The action may also request that the delaying co-executor pay damages, if any result from inexcusable delay, or interest or even forfeit some or all commissions due to him/her for acting as executrix. One co-executor usually cannot simply assume total control of the estate and move forward, because, in most states, when there are more than one executor, it takes a majority to act, and when there are only two executors, there is no majority.
