Yes. The final account must be filed and allowed by the court in order to close the estate. An executor who refuses to file a final account should be reported to the court. The judge can compel the executor to file the final account so the court, and the heirs, can review the disposition of the estate by comparing it to the inventory and the distribution to heirs.

What should you do if the named executor who is also the main beneficiary is not acting in the best interest of the other heirs?

Either renounce or administer the estate or pay a professional to deal with the matter and the fees would be met from the estate. It is up to the executor to decide. If the exector decides to administer the estate, he or she can be paid a fee (amount varies by state and county). The executor is not a beneficiary and the beneficiary is not the executor. The beneficiaries really have no say as to what the executor should do (i.e., adminster estate, hire attorney to represent estate, or renounce). The executor has a sworn duty to administer the estate in accordance with the deceased's will and the laws of the state and county of probate.


When a person dies without a will does the state always step in to appoint an executor?

Can there be only one co-executor?

No, in fact, you can have as many co-executors as needed. However, as you can imagine, the more co-executors you have, the more complicated administering the estate becomes. I always suggest that only one executor is named, followed by an alternate executor if the original executor cannot act, or has pre-deceased the testator.
