If a child is alternate executrix of father's will and the step mom is the executrix does the child legally have the right to obtain copy of the will?

Absolutely! Many people have either 2 Executrixs (female) or perhaps an Exector (male) and Executrix. Executrix's aren't taken lightly and they are to follow the wishes of the deceased to the letter. This means paying off all bills and other debts, and then the Estate goes into Probate and they will be sure all person/property taxes are paid and all creditors are paid. Once this is done then what is left in the Estate will be disbursed to any Heirs that the deceased mentioned in the Will. The Executrix can also collect 1% - 3.5% out of the total assests of the Estate for carrying out this duty, but anything over 3.5% may go into court as it's on the high side. Usually family within family won't charge anything for being Executrix or if they feel they deserve it won't go over 2% of the total Estate. Marcy * The person will need to file a request with the probate court to obtain a copy of the will if the primary executor or executrix refuses to supply them a copy.

What if your fathers girlfriend leave the estate to the father but father dies before policy holder does the estate got to children of the father?

If the girlfriend is still alive then she can change her beneficiary. If she died and didn't change her beneficiary then you may have a claim if her estate went to your father. You should speak to an attorney. You refer to a "policy holder" in your question as well as an "estate". If the subject is a life insurance policy and your father was the beneficiary but was deceased when the insured died then be aware that the girlfriend probably named a contingent beneficiary on her policy.
