First, no one is an executor until the will has been allowed by the probate court and the court has appointed the executor. Until appointed by a court, an executor has NO power.
Once appointed, the executor MUST follow the provisions of the will regardless of their personal feelings. The executor has no personal interest in the estate. They perform their responsibilities under the supervision of the probate court and will be held personally liable for any misbehavior.
Every person has the right to decide what will happen to their property when they die. Those wishes are expressed in a will. Only a judge can modify the terms of a will after the testator has died..
