Yes. Executors are forbidden from abandoning estate assets or the obligation to handle the estate properly. Some states will consider moving to Another Country as such an abandonment would most likely be taken as an abandonment. The state where the will was probated will have statutes that outline the situations in which an executor may be removed from office. One of those instances is abandonment of estate assets. That state's probate court will have a procedure to file a complaint alleging the facts of the abandonment and demanding that the court remove the executor. The state's laws and court rules will direct the manner in which the complaint is to be served on the executor and if service is properly made, the court will proceed to look into the matter. If the executor fails to appear, the court will remove him or her. If the executor appears and denies the allegations of abandonment, the matter will proceed to trial. If abandonment is proved at trial, the executor will be removed. If it is not proved, the executor will not be removed. However, the court might require the executor to post a surety bond to protect the beneficiaries in case the executor does abandon things in the future.
